The Gift
On celebrating my acceptance to Arts Warehouse, my new studio space, I created this burst of pink flower petals

This is a very rich use of magenta and crimsons. There is a burst of energy of abstract, expressionistic brushstrokes only to be tamed by the arc at the top. It is a controlled beast. I in fact see a set of light gestural marks evoking a horse at the mid-left edge of the painting. This makes me think that there is an interesting story behind this painting, more than a still life of a flower vase. It reads more as a landscape with figures and symbols than as a still life, in my humble opinion. Especially the arc of the magenta that you may have put in as an accumulation of flower petals reads as a crimson sky or clouds as much as a flower.
