Description
Peonies, a floral still life. The tones of flowers and leaves. Oil on canvas, 70 × 50 cm
The title sets the tone: not an explosion, but softness. Delicate peonies hold their full bloom while keeping their edges fragile. The large format allows the bouquet to breathe; oil paint captures a volume that watercolor cannot convey. The viewer is meant to sense the scent, the weight of the blossoms, and the tranquility of a still life that needs no fanfare.
