The American beautyberry flowers in early summer, but it’s best known for its showstopping magenta fruit. This piece was inspired by a plant photographed in the Kaul Wildflower Garden, a native plant garden managed by the Birmingham Botanical Gardens. The composition highlights the saturated color and clustered texture of the berries as they descend diagonally through the canvas. Deep green leaves, layered and lit with glints of light, guide the viewer’s eye throughout the piece. Painted on deep gallery-wrapped canvas with professional artist-quality materials, it’s varnished for protection and comes ready to hang—no framing needed.
