Few flowers are quite as universally adored as the peony. Textured, vibrant, delicate, and beautiful: this stunning perennial is an icon in its own right. In my new painting, Power of Peonies, I wanted to celebrate this evocative and uplifting flower that is impossible not to love.

When creating this piece, I questioned what makes the peony flower so magnetically lovable. The power of beauty for one cannot be disregarded, as there is certainly no denying there is something quite stunning about the layers of soft petals and the way they seem to reach out to the viewer in a sort of longing embrace.

Recreating that feeling in paint on canvas was essential in this work. I focused on building texture and creating movement to represent the peony and its pull on me. The color palette is modest and understated, drawing on the delicate nature of these flowers. It seems clear to me that the peony’s luscious pink and red tones are part of the reason I can’t help but fall in love every time I see one.
