Sunflowers, stocks and roses tumble across the canvas with exuberant colour and energy, painted entirely with a \u003cstrong\u003epalette knife\u003c\/strong\u003e that builds layer upon layer of deeply textured, impasto oil paint you can almost feel beneath your fingertips.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe palette is gloriously rich: \u003cstrong\u003estriking yellows and an array of vibrant greens\u003c\/strong\u003e 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 \u003cstrong\u003eteal glaze\u003c\/strong\u003e, creating a hauntingly beautiful contrast — jewel-like and otherworldly — that reveals itself the longer you look.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe vase is a work of art in its own right. Rendered in \u003cstrong\u003edelicate, intricate brushwork\u003c\/strong\u003e — a rare moment of fine detail amid the bold palette knife strokes — it shimmers with \u003cstrong\u003edark blues, violets, lemons and aqua\u003c\/strong\u003e, its surface catching the light like glazed porcelain. It anchors the composition with quiet elegance while the flowers above it burst with life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Technique\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedium: Oil on deep boxed canvas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 48 x 40 inches (122 x 102 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplication: Palette knife throughout, with fine brushwork detail on the vase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTexture: Deeply impasto, with pronounced surface relief\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePalette: Yellows, greens, deep reds, oranges, teal, dark blues, violets, lemons and aqua\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: Impressionistic floral, expressive and gestural\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Work\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArtist: Lesley Blackburn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubject: Sunflowers, stocks and roses in a decorative vase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal painting — not a print or reproduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReady to hang — no framing required (deep boxed canvas)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertificate of authenticity included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eUK shipping available.
