little unframed abstracts

13 February 2018

For the upcoming A&P show in Wanaka, which is in just 3 weeks (yikes!), I've decided to add a number of small, unframed, abstract landscapes to my collection. These are an affordable art option.

I'm also offering them for sale prior to the show.

Aren't primroses just made to be painted? That deep violet with the yellow centres, and if you look closely, so many beautiful colour variations within each petal. They're the first really intense col...
