A Violets’ Fall
Acrylic on canvas, 60 cm x 75 cm
After the momentum of sunflowers in motion, this work drifts into stillness.
A Violets’ Fall is a downward bloom, violets leaning softly into space, each held by the familiar four-square system, yet rendered in cooler tones, on a deeper blue field. The feeling is quieter. More internal. Like a breath exhaled.
There is no chaos here, only gravity. The stems barely anchor the flowers. They seem to float, to tilt, to fall, not dramatically, but with calm inevitability.
It is a work held in melancholy, not sadness, but softness. A slow turning inward.
This piece doesn’t mourn. It remembers. It holds something in the space between light and loss. And in that fall, the structure stays intact.
