My digital painting 'Floral Softness' is a tribute to the old masters. It is an oil painting in digital form.
The colours are vibrant, with a range of shades of green, pale yellow and pink. The dark background creates a contrast that gives the flowers more radiance. The colours are used to draw attention to the beauty and delicate details of the flowers. The light fall is an important element in the work, it falls from one side creating a dramatic effect. This adds depth to the work. The light gives a sense of serenity and calm.
Although the flowers and leaves are realistically rendered, they may not occur in nature at all in this form. It is a free interpretation of the creator. It is about the composition, the use of colour, the feeling that is conveyed. The work invites silence and reflection, a moment to enjoy the beauty of flowers in a different form than we are used to. Moreover, there is a touch of transience in the work, as if the flowers are about to wilt. This makes the work even more special, as it is not only a visual delight, but also a reflection on life itself.
