c Flower

A vibrant arrangement of blooms dominates the composition, rendered in bold gestural strokes across the board’s surface. Red, yellow, purple and white flowers cluster densely, their forms simplified yet recognisable, anchored by dark green stems in a transparent vase. The palette is assertive and joyful, with warm and cool hues creating visual tension against the soft purplish-grey ground. Gericke’s acrylic technique reveals his expressive approach to colour and form, developed through decades of study with influential South African artists.
