Mossy Bank Wall Art

A single wild rose opens above a spray of fine grasses and small blue flax, anchored to a low mossy bank. Careful chiaroscuro light falls from the left, lifting each petal and blade against a deep green shadow, so the eye travels the precise botanical detail of stem, thorn and leaf. Natural colour and quiet depth give the painting the calm of a study made in the open air, a small piece of hedgerow held still.
