Hibiscus Red (214)

"Hibiscus Red (214)", oil on linen, 16x20". For sale on Etsy.

Hibiscus and frangipani flowers burst forth in a swirl of color. The color scheme is based on red. The flowers are painted in various styles and layered on top of each other in a collage-like fashion. Blocky pixels erupt in different areas of the painting to give a sense of how I used the internet as a source for the images, as usual. This time I used Yahoo's image search.
