Original Painting by Mechelle Flowers — “Blush & Verdigris”

Blush & Verdigris is an original 11 x 14 acrylic and oil painting on canvas featuring an expressive floral arrangement rendered in layered, atmospheric color. Deep teal and moody greens anchor the bouquet, while soft blush, coral, and rose tones emerge through translucent passages of paint.

The vertical composition emphasizes lift and elegance, with the darkened vase form grounding the movement above. Loose brushwork and softened edges create depth without rigidity, allowing color relationships to carry the emotional weight of the piece.

Hints of warmth in the background neutral field keep the composition balanced, preventing the cooler greens from dominating. The result feels romantic yet contemporary, painterly without becoming decorative.

Framed in a gold floating frame, this piece works beautifully in intimate spaces such as a powder room, bedside vignette, layered gallery wall, or styled bookshelf.
