"Roses for Mary" #129

from $35.00

This original painting by Maria de Rojas showcases a vibrant arrangement of pink roses nestled in a terracotta vase, uniquely painted blue on the top and white on the bottom. The vase rests on a warm, brown wooden table, set against a lush green background that evokes the tranquility of the Low Country. Maria masterfully uses chroma to heighten the intensity of the pink roses, making them the focal point. The rich hues of pink contrast beautifully with the cooler blue of the vase, while the white adds a soft balance, creating a harmonious yet striking color palette. Through subtle variations in tone, she builds depth across the composition—the dark wood table anchors the piece, while the nuanced green backdrop recedes gently, giving the flowers and vase a three-dimensional presence. The dramatic brushwork is a standout feature, energizing both the roses and the vase. Bold, sweeping strokes convey the lush texture and delicate petals of the roses, capturing their natural movement and life. Similarly, the vase’s surface is rendered with expressive, tactile brushwork that suggests the roughness of terracotta beneath the smooth glazes of paint. Together, these dynamic strokes infuse the painting with vitality, inviting the viewer to experience the vibrancy of a simple, beautiful moment in nature.
