Acrylic paint on canvas

30 x 30 cm

My inspiration for this painting was simply the vibrant blossoms that appear on Eucalyptus trees. I worked with the artist, Hayley Kruger, to build a broader understanding of colour and learn how to use washes. Something I like about this piece is the composition and contrast of the bright flower against the black background.
