Roses

A white vase of coral and pink roses occupies the centre of the composition, set against an abstracted background of grey-blue tonalities punctuated by circular forms. The flowers are rendered with careful attention to their organic structure and luminous colour, whilst the surrounding space remains deliberately muted and atmospheric. The work demonstrates Heyns’ technical mastery in oil on board, where the flowers transcend decorative function to embody deeper cycles of vitality and transience.
