A Bouquet Portrait
A Floral Design
based on the same bouquet
Siān Dudley, a talented artist, has three passions...painting, colour and flowers. These passions are evident in her floral paintings.
Her painting style varies ~ on occasions her concern is to capture the intense richness of a deep red rose, or the delicate shades of a cream rose bud. At other times she becomes absorbed by the form of the flower, accurately observing details of shape and colour. On yet other occasions it is portraying the essence of the flowers that intrigues her ~ the cheeriness of a daffodil, or the elegance of a calla lily.
Before Siān starts planning the composition of your painting she will discuss with you her ideas of how she
might interpret the flowers. Her artistic interpretation of the bouquet is likely to fall into one of the following loosely
defined categories, and she suggests taking these as a starting point for the discussion.
A Bouquet 'Portrait'.
This style
is a literal interpretation of the bouquet, accurately representing the shape of the bouquet, and the colour of the flowers and
foliage. These paintings celebrate the delight felt by the bride in choosing a bouquet that reflects her style and personality, and
provide lasting memories of the freshness and vitality of the bouquet as it was on the wedding day.
Floral Design .
While
a bride might truly love her wedding bouquet, it might be that it does not easily translate into a painting that expresses her taste
in home decoration. Creativity is the key to a painting that suits both bride and groom as a piece of art in its own right, but
with deep meaning for them since the inspiration will be the most special of bouquets. The resulting painting might be a loose interpretation
of the full bouquet, a traditional botanical illustration including each of the flowers, or a big blousy close-up of a selection
of flowers.
