"Paddle Pop Pansies" Original Painting

Acrylic and rhinestones on wood panel.

Size: 45cm (W) x 30cm (L) x 2cm (D) - (12" x 18")

This piece was initially inspired by the magnificent woodgrain that the wood panel already displayed when it was blank. I couldn't bring myself to paint over it. I had to include it in the painting in some way. I chose the colours intuitively and included the pansy flowers as if they were raining down the piece.

I carefully colour-matched and hand glued each rhinestone on to the piece and as I did so, it resembled somewhat of a "Rainbow Paddle Pop" vibe, hence the final name "Paddle Pop Pansies".

I love the way this piece sparkles in the light. It really does have a fun, vivacious feel to it, which perhaps can be attributed to the tiny "evil eye" cabochons in the middle of each flower which have historically been known to protect from negative energy.
