A breathtaking statement original oil painting by British artist Lesley Blackburn — measuring an impressive 48 x 40 inches on a deep boxed canvas, this is a work designed to command a room. Sunflowers, stocks and roses tumble across the canvas with exuberant colour and energy, painted entirely with a palette knife that builds layer upon layer of deeply textured, impasto oil paint you can almost feel beneath your fingertips.
The palette is gloriously rich: striking yellows and an array of vibrant greens weave through the composition, giving the arrangement a luminous, sun-drenched vitality. Some of the deep red and burning orange petals have been deliberately distressed with a teal glaze, creating a hauntingly beautiful contrast — jewel-like and otherworldly — that reveals itself the longer you look.
The vase is a work of art in its own right. Rendered in delicate, intricate brushwork — a rare moment of fine detail amid the bold palette knife strokes — it shimmers with dark blues, violets, lemons and aqua, its surface catching the light like glazed porcelain. It anchors the composition with quiet elegance while the flowers above it burst with life.
At nearly four feet wide, this painting transforms any wall it inhabits. It would be equally at home as a focal point in a grand hallway, a living room, or a contemporary interior seeking a bold, original centrepiece.
This is a unique, one-of-a-kind original — once sold, it cannot be replicated. An exceptional investment piece for collectors of original floral art and lovers of richly textured, expressive painting.
