 Egg tempera and gold leaf on oak 4cm x 40cm x 1cm This painting was inspired by flowers growing in a pot outside my local shop. The long, bright, red trumpet-shaped flowers looked as though they would be more at home in the cloud forests of South America than in northern France. For that reason, I added a humming bird to the right of the picture. Although inspired by real life, there is an element of fantasy in both bird and flowers. |
