Rose en Proteas

A vertical composition depicting an abundant cascade of roses and proteas in full bloom, rendered in acrylic across a narrow stretched canvas. The flowers tumble downward in overlapping clusters, their forms suggested through loose brushwork that emphasises colour and movement rather than botanical precision. Warm tones of red, pink and cream dominate, punctuated by deeper foliage and stem work in green and brown. The painting conveys both vitality and intimacy, characteristic of Neal’s impressionist approach and her acknowledged passion for floral subjects.
