In Tulips in Planes, the classic still life of a flower vase is reinvented in a contemporary way. The tulips, normally graceful and natural in form, are captured here in a stylised, almost abstract composition in which areas of colour play the leading role. The flowers are composed of bold, even colours - white, red, orange, purple and pink - which stand out powerfully against a background of geometric planes in warm earth tones and cooler pastels.
The brush strokes are visible and rich in texture, making the work feel tactile and alive. Each petal and leaf is suggested by shape and colour, rather than by detail or realism. The background - composed of blocks of pink, old rose, ochre yellow and midnight blue - contributes to a harmonious yet playful whole in which foreground and background sometimes merge.
This painting invites a different way of looking: not at what it represents, but at how it is constructed. Tulips in Plains is an ode to simplicity and structure, in which nature finds its place within a world of abstraction. The flowers seem both captured and liberated in the flat plane, balancing between recognisability and form experimentation. Spring. Summer. Modern Abstract. Structure. Holland. Netherlands.
