Petals Poppies and Wildflowers (2025)Acrylic painting by Amanda Horvath

"Petals, Poppies and Wildflowers" was inspired by quiet moments in my sunny garden in Derbyshire where surrounded by nearby fields and woodland, we often have a cool, refreshing breeze. I keep a variety of potted plants, and over time, seeds drifting in on the wind bring delightful surprises and unexpected flowers that bloom in vibrant colours, creating a natural tapestry of beauty.
My garden is also a haven for bees, their gentle hum and constant motion adding to the peaceful atmosphere. Watching them busily gather pollen inspired the romantic essence of this original painting, an expressive, one-of-a-kind celebration of a favourite subject.
To create this painting, I layered deep, dark tones with light, luminous colours to produce bold contrasts and evoke the scent and vitality of summer flowers carried on the breeze. Using gestural brushstrokes and a range of mark-making techniques, I’ve created an impressionistic style that captures the movement and spontaneity of a wildflower meadow.
The piece is painted on a deep-edge canvas, with white-painted sides, and is ready to hang without the need for a frame.
