Night Blooms
This piece was inspired by elements from the artist's own home surroundings and features a serene nature scene with prominent white datura flowers in the foreground. Above the flowers, there is a dramatic sky hinting at an approaching storm. The background features rolling green hills, adding depth to the composition. A tree with gnarled, bare branches extends into the sky on the right side of the image, creating an intriguing contrast between the delicate flowers and the stark, almost haunting branches. The overall mood of the painting is both tranquil and slightly ominous, capturing the beauty and unpredictability of nature.
