Slender stems rise with deliberate grace, each line placed with intention, cutting through negative space like calligraphy on a blank page. Petals, few but luminous, seem to hover rather than rest, their colours softened by light that feels both natural and contemplative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition resists symmetry, leaning instead into a gentle asymmetry that creates tension and calm at once. Shadows stretch and dissolve, echoing the forms without overpowering them. There is a sense of pause in the painting—a captured breath—where time slows and attention narrows to the subtle dialogue between form, space, and silence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore than a floral study, Ikebana becomes a meditation on simplicity and presence. What is omitted feels as significant as what remains, inviting the viewer to look longer, and to find meaning in the delicate balance between fullness and emptiness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtwork only 49cm wide x 69cm high\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFramed 68cm wide x 98cm high x 2.5 depth\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtwork is sealed for life long protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIN SITU PHOTOS  \u003c\/strong\u003e‘In situ’ photos have been included to help with visualisation of the artwork in your home.
