ode to matisse: vase with flowers, 2024 - original artwork

MATERIALS: acrylic & gouache on a wood canvas. varnished with resin. white floater frame & hanging hardware included with piece.

ABOUT / ARTIST STATEMENT: a homage to henri matisse and his iconic flower market series, which resonates deeply with me for its vibrant colors and expressive brushwork. drawing inspiration from matisse's bold use of color and simplified forms, I sought to capture the essence of his masterful compositions while infusing my own artistic interpretation.
