Original artwork description:

"Rose Mallow" is a floral daydream, a celebration of beauty both tender and untamed. Inspired by the delicate hibiscus, often called rose mallow, this artwork imagines a bloom filled garden just past the height of spring, where color begins to spill, melt, and mingle like memory. Painted in an expressive, semi-abstract style, layers of soft corals, rich pinks, warm reds, and touches of creamy white unfold across a cool-toned background, hinting at sky or sea. Loose brushwork creates petal-like forms that hover between realism and suggestion, while fluid drips cascade on to the canvas, unravelling the structure and adding a feeling of release. The paint is flicked, thrown, and allowed to run freely, inviting the eye to wander and the mind to soften. "Rose Mallow" plays with the boundaries of control and chaos, echoing nature’s own rhythm. It’s a quiet riot of color and movement, where stillness and spontaneity meet in full bloom.
