Japanese Peony (Study)
In Japanese Peony (A study), Jill Jeffrey presents a stunning exploration of one of nature's most flamboyant flowers. This exquisite watercolour features a delicate pink peony, its lush petals unfurling to reveal vibrant yellow stamens at the centre. Grown in Jeffrey’s own garden, this study showcases her keen eye for detail and her deep appreciation for the beauty of flora.
The artist has chosen to leave the background white, a deliberate decision that enhances the dramatic impact of the peony and draws the viewer's attention to its intricate beauty. Measuring 29cm wide x 48cm deep, this piece captures the peony in all its glory, celebrating its rich textures and vivid colours. Jeffrey’s skilful use of watercolour on high-quality Saunders paper results in a luminous finish, allowing the flower to almost glow against the simplicity of the backdrop.
Japanese Peony (A study) is a captivating addition to any art collection, inviting appreciation of the elegance and vibrancy of this beloved flower in a striking and refined manner.
