CYNTHIA GATIEN

Blooms

I think my floral paintings are more about colour than the actual flowers themselves. If anything, I’ve strived to make the flowers unrecognizable, more abstract, and focused on how the various colours harmonize. And, of course, I do love painting pottery, particularly Peranakan pots, so very often they find their way into my work. (All paintings are on Profile (1 1/2″) canvases, the edges are painted.)
