Can I Call You Rose

Crimson, coral and magenta flow across the canvas, lit with flashes of gold leaf and a deep plum rose in full bloom. Look closer and a woman’s face emerges, eyes softly closed, drawn in fine lines that dissolve into the petals around her. Neither fully abstract nor fully portrait, Can I Call You Rose rewards the viewer who lingers, revealing something new each time.

The painting embraces abundance, spontaneity and a little bit of chaos, celebrating the energy that comes from letting colour take over. It’s playful, vibrant and unapologetically loud - a floral riot that simply refuses to behave.
