Botanical I

This artwork features a beautifully rendered onion with delicate green shoots and vibrant, pink flowers emerging from its top. The composition emphasizes the organic forms and textures, showcasing a harmonious balance between the bulbous onion and the elegant floral elements. The subtle background in a warm beige adds depth and helps the colors of the onion and flowers pop, creating a striking focal point. The intricate details of the roots also add an earthy connection to the natural world.
This painting can enhance various interior spaces, making it suitable for kitchens, dining areas, or garden-themed rooms. Its botanical theme brings a fresh and lively energy to the space, ideal for stimulating conversations in social settings. Placing it in a well-lit area will accentuate its color palette and natural textures, providing a warm ambiance.

The serie “Botanical” is botanical motives featuring serene backgrounds. They are created by photographing flowers and plants, then painting over them with a digital pen. Botanical is both artistic, photorealistic and detailed, while also incorporating loose, poetic brushstrokes. It possess a whimsical and dreamy expression in a light Nordic style, with references to Japanese botanical aesthetics. Having held several major exhibitions in Japan, I feel a deep connection to their view of nature. Botanical also harken back to the era before photography, when plants were illustrated in full detail and given Latin names as part of mapping nature. This tradition can also be seen in Royal Copenhagen’s “Flora Danica” series.
