Birds of Paradise

Rich reds and glowing oranges bring the warmth of a Caribbean garden into Birds of Paradise, an original oil painting by Lesley Blackburn. Inspired by the vivid colour of tropical flowers, this large panoramic work celebrates the expressive possibilities of floral painting.

Worked with a palette knife on slim linen canvas, the textured surface gives the composition a lively, tactile presence. Its sweeping horizontal format invites the eye to travel across the painting, making it a striking focal point above a sofa, sideboard or console. In a quiet interior, its warm palette offers a generous burst of colour.
