The Peony Parlour, oil on canvas, 90 x 90cm
When I painted The Peony Parlour, I wanted to capture the delicate, timeless beauty peonies bring, almost as if they’re whispering secrets to each other. The vase is filled with blooms at their peak, their soft pinks and rich blush tones set against a playful patterned backdrop that adds a touch of vintage charm. The background pattern gives this piece its character, framing each petal with a unique contrast that’s both lively and calming. As the brush danced across the canvas, I felt the scene come to life, a cozy corner filled with the quiet grace of peonies, inviting you to pause and enjoy a moment of simple elegance. It’s a space where flowers speak and patterns listen, a little “parlour” of blooms just waiting to be discovered. The Peony Parlour is ready to hang.
