Original oil painting on cradled 30 × 30cm wooden panel with hanging hardware attached.
A single Leucadendron unfurls against a white, neutral ground, its structure rendered with sculptural clarity. Bold, saturated colors — deep crimson, vibrant orange, and olive-green — layer and overlap, creating a tactile sense of depth. Highlights catch the edges and subtle shadows settle beneath, giving the bloom a three-dimensional presence as if poised to lift from the canvas. The composition’s restraint — the isolated subject and clean background — focuses attention on texture, color interplay, and the quiet intensity of the Leucadendron, evoking both botanical precision and painterly warmth.
Viewed as one third of a set, this piece balances intimacy and strength. It invites close inspection of its surface while holding its own as part of a broader conversation about place, endurance, and the quiet drama of native flora.
Price includes postage within Australia.
