Arum Bunch U/F

A composition of white arum lilies with prominent yellow stamens, rendered in oil against a dark, textured ground. The flowers are positioned at varying heights across the canvas, their elegant forms emerging from a lush green base. The palette knife technique creates layers of paint that suggest both form and spontaneity, whilst the interplay of light and shadow lends the work atmospheric depth. De Freitas’s improvisational approach—drawing parallels to jazz musicianship—allows the painting to evolve beyond representational constraint into something more impressionistically realised.
