Brown Paper Bouquet – Original Acrylic Painting on Canvas

I am fascinated by painting brown paper. I have scrunched and folded it to create an abstract design.

What you see at first glance is simply a shape.

The brown paper is held together by the folds, the flowers are picked at random. Carefully put together they make a convincing composition, highlighting the beauty in nature. The light and dark of the green background gives a sense of limitless space.

The wild flowers and brown paper epitomise the simple and commonplace.

Because the artwork goes around the sides, the painting would work over a mantle piece, a breakfast room, a family kitchen or almost anywhere!
