Bleeding Heart


At last! A new painting! The above acrylic painting is of the Dicentra flower, which is more commonly known as the Bleeding Heart flower due to its heart-like shape. I was really struck by this flower and its simplicity and tried to replicate that in the painting itself. It is painted on a very yummy piece of white gesso panel which contrasted very nicely with the vivid colors.

If you would like to see more pictures, or would like to buy the painting for yourself, it is now in the shop!
