Flowers in Van Gogh’s Colors

Golden yellow and orange flowers weave diagonally through green foliage against a luminous blue ground. Rich, sculptural petals bring a lively rhythm to this one-of-a-kind original painting, with a palette that recalls Van Gogh’s love of vivid color. Made with texture, acrylic, and flower petals. Honorable Mention — TERAVARNA 2026 International Juried Art Competition. Artist’s inspiration: It started with a beautiful background color — light phthalo blue from Gaffrey Art Material — and the idea of a diagonal, weaving line of yellow flowers. Elly imagined it in a baby’s room, with the flowers offering tired parents a moment of beauty and a breath of fresh air. What began as something soothing grew into a more exuberant garden. Size: 23.7 x 11.7 in (60.2 x 29.7 cm). One of a kind. The nursery and children’s-room images are illustrative renderings, not to scale.
