Fading Peony (2026) Original Watercolour by Maryna Boiko

38 x 56 x 0.1cm (unframed)

£448.71

This botanical watercolor study is a tribute to the fleeting beauty of a fading peony. Unlike traditional illustrations that focus only on the peak of bloom, this work celebrates the realistic character of the flower as it begins to age. The focus is on the intricate, ruffled layers of the petals and the subtle, papery textures of the drying edges, rendered with clinical precision.

I sought to capture the "personality" of this specific bloom, from its vibrant heart to the delicate, almost translucent petals. The contrast between the soft pink pigments and the warm, sepia-toned traces of time creates a narrative of natural transformation.

Materials used:

Professional watercolor paints,100% cotton watercolor paper, 300 gsm,Fine detail brush, Lightfast pigments
