Made using real skeleton petals - natures lace
As the flower ages, nature gradually dissolves the soft tissue, leaving behind only the delicate skeletal structure. These “skeleton petals” are incredibly beautiful, but also extremely fragile.
This painting incorporates genuine hydrangea petals.
Working with them requires great care and patience, making their presence in the artwork all the more meaningful.
Created for those who treasure the gentle presence of nature and garden life - this painting offers a soft echo of a Portuguese garden, brought indoors.
The inspiration for “Seven Sisters” came while I was pruning an hydrangea in the garden.
As I worked, I noticed how beautifully some of the petals had transformed into delicate skeletal forms. I imagined how these natural structures could bring subtle texture and meaning to a painting.
“There are always flowers for those who want to see them”
Henri Matisse
Framing Suggestion
This painting is created on a flat-edged canvas with a depth of 1.5 cm. The edges are fully painted, allowing it to be displayed beautifully without a frame.
For a more refined presentation, the painting is also available in a high-quality wooden shadow frame in black with a subtle gold face.
The golden accent gently reflects the artwork’s own highlights, creating a sense of harmony and continuity.
With its elegant, contemporary design, the shadow frame enhances the piece without overpowering it — giving the impression that the painting is softly floating within.
