Innocent Deceptions is a delicate, demure painting that is
full of lush lines, luminous colors and the subject matter to send the heart
fluttering. This original canvas painting depicts three flowers in different
stages of bloom. The two that dominate the foreground of the painting are in
full bloom, the petals reaching outward to some unseen source of sunlight. The
third flower that is nestled into the background of the painting and is in a
more stunted phase of growth, having not yet opened. Each of these flowers,
despite other differences, are painted using large, arching brush strokes that
create a sense of fluidity in the painting. All of the petals are a blinding,
beautiful shade of white that springs forward from the heart of each flower,
making the painting quite eye catching.
The insides of the flowers slowly descend into grays, then finally
shades of yellow-brown. The interiors are a warm shade of brown. The stems of
these flowers are quite thin, and almost irrelevant to the viewer's gaze,
mapping their small paths in very faint thin black lines down to the base of
the canvas. While the primary subjects of this painting are brilliantly,
elegantly white, the background finds a more muted shade of the same color-
almost the tone of very pure cement. The minimal contract between the
background and foreground of Innocent Deceptions intensifies the overwhelming
luminosity of this painting, making it all the more bold and striking.
Innocent Deceptions is depicted on a single piece of finely
stretched canvas. The artist here has favored width over height, thus, there is
generous amounts of canvas for the flowers to spread their petals and reach
breathtaking expanse. This layout not only allows the subjects of this painting
to reach their full and elegant potential, but it keeps uniformity across the
canvas and creates a nice sense of continuity, as well. With a scale that is at
once breathtaking and manageable, Innocent Deceptions just might be perfect in
its design! This painting can easily be incorporated into all sorts of spaces
and decors. If you are interested in viewing more original canvas paintings
