Throughout this collection, the motif of the florilegium remains a timeless homage to the Latin phrase meaning “a gathering of flowers.” Created before photography, florilegia celebrated the diversity of plant life. This tradition continues in my work, focusing on British blooms and reflecting a renewed appreciation for locally grown plants and a desire to reconnect with nature close to home. Each painting captures the spirit of these botanical forms with the enduring grace of paint.
The poppy, with its layered petals, has a long history as both a garden flower and a natural remedy, once valued for its calming, sleep-inducing properties.
