Flowers No. 5
2023 - 18 cm x 24 cm - Acrylic on canvas - brush - on stretcher frame

Flowers die, like everything alive, no matter how beautiful, fragrant, poisonous or strong they are. No matter how the person taking care of them takes care of them. Sooner or later they will die. How long they survive is mainly determined by external factors: soil, roots, luck - because it depends on it where they will grow or where they will end up as seeds. The plants themselves have no influence on this. They will only try to reach water and light, even when others get in their way. They will try to occupy the best possible place in the ecosystem, but for how long? Flowers may not live, but exist in their empty beauty when they are deprived of roots and good soil, which is replaced with a jar of water, just like in the painting. They will slowly die prematurely, retaining only their external appearance for a fairly short time for beautiful specimens. The person to whom they are given has a big influence on how they will look. If they are left alone in an unnatural environment, they will wither and die faster than they should, they will not even have the strength to pretend they are alive. Flowers, even the best and most beautiful ones, can always be replaced with a new bouquet, for example when the previous ones have already withered. This can usually be done at a low cost, because they are just plants, which, in addition, are constantly growing new ones. Of course, this does not include protected plants, rare plants in the world or exceptional ones. And what do you think about flowers? Are we really talking about them? Do you like symbols?

They are created from scratch - from knocking together a stretcher from boards, stretching and creating a canvas by the artist himself. (apart from a few exceptions in the collection where a different canvas was purchased especially for this purpose, or they were painted on the wall)
The paintings are sold without a frame - the first photo is a preview visualization only.
The painting may not have a perfect square or rectangular shape due to unevenness of the stretcher frame because it was created from scratch by hand and they appeared by accident, or the stretcher frame was intentionally curved for the purpose of imitating something, or for other purposes consistent with its message.

Some paintings do not have a stretcher frame and are sold as canvas only - ready to be stretched yourself.

In the case of shipping outside the EU, additional customs fees may be charged, which are covered by the buyer.
