Strength in Softness

Oil on Canvas | Framed in Farrow & Ball Wimborne White

Inspired by wild primroses in a French garden

Strength in Softness is a lush, expressive floral abstraction inspired by the wild primroses that bloom freely in the artist’s French garden. Vibrant swathes of pinks, yellows, greens, and soft mauves come together in layered brushstrokes that feel both spontaneous and intentional. The composition celebrates the untamed beauty of spring — colour in motion, petals without borders, and nature at its most joyful.

Rather than depicting petals with strict realism, the painting captures the feeling of stepping into a garden: the warmth of sunlight, the richness of foliage, and the soft collision of colours as flowers cluster and trail. The result is uplifting, painterly, and full of energy.

The artwork is finished in a wooden float frame painted in Farrow & Ball Wimborne White, adding a clean, contemporary edge that enhances the colour palette and makes it ready to hang in any interior

Specifications:

  • Medium: Oil on canvas

  • Frame: Wooden float frame painted in Farrow & Ball Wimborne White

  • Orientation: Landscape (note: suitable for multiple orientations if preferred)

  • Inspiration: Wild primroses in the artist’s French garden

  • Shipping: Worldwide shipping available; securely packaged

  • Availability: Original artwork — one of a kind

A perfect piece for collectors who love expressive floral work, contemporary abstraction, and artworks that bring colour, warmth, and vitality into the home.
