Perfumes

I adore perfume, and many of my artworks are based around the bottles. As well as admiring their design - the symmetry of the classic Chanel flacon or the imagination of the Jean Paul Gaultier torso, their reflective qualities appeal to me. The challenge of painting glass never fades, the attempt to depict in paint something translucent, to use your brush to capture in strokes what is essentially clear! It is like trying to paint nothing, and that is the approach I find works best – to put very few marks on the canvas and let your brain fill in the information.

'Rosa Mundi Chanel'~SOLD

Framed dimensions : 34.5 x44.5cm
Beautiful and sriking flower (Rosa Mundi) in Chanel perfume bottle. The delicate ‘stippled’ flower petals are finely captured in acrylic brushwork, and the glass perfume bottle is sparingly precise. The stark dark background with the neon pink surrounding canvas edge make this a very modern floral still life. The canvas has been framed in a black wooden tray frame that enables you to glimpse the neon pink sides.
