The soft light moves quietly over the orchids, lighting up their delicate petals, before resting upon the calming violet of the cloth. The grace and delicate beauty of the butterfly invites reflection upon our ever evolving world and symbolising rebirth, as it flutters and dances around the flowers. I aim to create a sense of peace and calm in my paintings, in a bold yet minimalistic way, with the soft light illuminating both the delicacy of the flowers and the strong colours in the cloth, complimenting each other in a restful and meditative way.
