Original acrylic painting on canvas 32 x 32cm Framed in a hand-painted timber float frame Ready to hang
A loose gathering of flowers and leaves drifts across a soft mauve ground, with forms overlapping, stretching and slipping gently in and out of recognition.
Floating moves between floral still life and abstraction, bringing together deep green, inky blue, magenta, ochre and chalky white. Some shapes remain recognisably botanical, while others have been simplified and loosened until they feel more like gestures than flowers.
There is a lightness to the composition, as though the forms are suspended rather than arranged, held somewhere between observation, memory and invention.
Floating is one of four original paintings from Something Like Flowers, a small collection exploring remembered, imagined and loosely invented botanical forms.
Finished in a hand-painted timber float frame chosen to sit quietly alongside the work.
