Amaryllis Study

$650.00

12×16 inches

oil, alkyd, cold wax, Arches oil paper, birch block

A still life that hovers between representation and painterly rupture, this composition reconfigures the traditional bouquet as a site of material intensity. Dense, impastoed reds press forward against a volatile ground of ochres and pale neutrals, where pigment drips and incised vertical lines interrupt the surface, destabilizing depth and form.

The floral arrangement is both constructed and undone—petal-like gestures coalesce momentarily before dissolving into layered abrasion and flow. Color operates as a structuring force, with saturated crimsons and acidic yellows generating a tension between lushness and decay.
