'Echinacea' sits at the intersection of botanical study and abstraction, presenting a dreamlike landscape rooted in Neo-Expressionism. The composition centers on an ethereal coneflower with fluid petals, contrasted against gravity-heavy seed pods. Using light-body acrylics and oil pastels, the work creates a layered, luminous surface.
The painting balances gestural marks with precise line work, reflecting the artist’s preference for expressive creation. It draws on Henri Matisse's color sensibilities to transform familiar floral motifs into a sophisticated landscape.
