About "Apple Blossom"

All credit goes to Morguefile.com for their inspirational photograph of this beautiful flower.

I am always inspired to paint flowers and when I came across this beautiful photograph of the Apple Blossom, I was drawn to the pure colour of this beautiful flower. The buds looked a bit intricate to paint and therefore a good challenge for me.

I painted the background in translucent colours with the result that the background gives off pure colour/light especially when there is a light shining directly onto this painting.

I also softened the painting by bringing in soft, dainty little leaves.

Painting this painting brought me much joy and I loved every minute of it. I could almost smell the fragrance of the flower whilst paining it.

My you be blessed by this painting.

About Valerie

I am a South African oil painter from East London whose work explores the beauty of nature through colour, realism and expressive mark-making. My paintings combine contemporary floral realism with impressionistic and abstract influences. Recognisable flowers are surrounded by layered, painterly backgrounds in which colour, texture and movement create atmosphere and emotion.

Working from my sun-filled studio, I approach each painting with curiosity and a willingness to experiment. Inspired by flowers, light, nature and the richness of everyday life, I seeks not only to paint what I see, but to capture the feeling it evokes. My work is ultimately about beauty, optimism and the joy of being alive.
