Blooms of Joy 1

Blooms of Joy 1 is a small floral painting that feels playful, colourful, and full of life. I loved exploring the contrast in this piece — the bright flowers glow against the dark background, and the layered marks give it a sense of movement and quiet energy.

The painted edges are especially vibrant on this one. I carried bold colour around the sides in a way that contrasts with the darker front, adding an extra layer of energy and surprise. When you see it in person, the edges feel like their own little burst of colour that complements the painting beautifully.

There is something gently uplifting about this piece. The colours shift as you spend time with it, and the small details — dots, lines, and touches of sparkle — bring personality without feeling overwhelming.

This small floral painting is created on a solid art panel, so it is easy to display on a wall, shelf, or small easel — wherever you would like a moment of colour and warmth.

If you are drawn to expressive florals, layered texture, and artwork that feels joyful and full of character then this little beauty is for you.
