A pair of creamy white Amaryllis buds opening towards the light. The serene beauty of mid-winter light is reflected in the background pigment mix on Hosokawa Heritage paper. The brush strokes describe the subtle curves and arches of the petals’ unique shapes and the vibrant green supporting stalk. The subtle interplay of light and shadow on the textured paper and pigments lends depth and dimension to the composition.

Amaryllis remind me of the festive seasons of my southern hemisphere childhood and it is a joy to include them in our northern hemisphere celebrations.

The piece is fixed to a simple wooden batten with the title and my signature on the back. There is a clear thread attached for immediate display as a focal point in a living space or as an accent piece in a curated collection. I like the interaction of breezes and light with this free hanging method but if you would prefer another way of framing I can remove the batten prior to posting. The banner is rolled into a cardboard container for posting. Free postage world wide.
