Sunflowers and daisies

A ceramic vessel overflows with sunflowers and daisies in full bloom, their yellow and white petals rendered with gestural brushwork against a softly muted background. The composition balances the exuberance of the flowers with a contemplative palette of purples, pinks and blues. Boonzaaier’s characteristic exploration of rich colour and contrasting texture is evident throughout, whilst the acrylic medium allows for both fluid passages and deliberate layering that creates considerable depth within this intimate square format.
