Sunlit Yellow Hibiscus, by Katherine Kean, presents a striking close-up of a hibiscus flower rendered in rich oil colors. The petals glow with a translucent quality, illuminated from behind to reveal intricate layers of texture and depth. At the center, a vibrant red core anchors the composition, while the surrounding yellow petals fan outward in bold, confident strokes. The flower rests in a modest vase placed upon a reflective surface that captures subtle glimmers of light, adding a quiet sense of presence and balance. In the background, abstract shapes in varied greens and reds hint at tropical foliage without drawing focus from the main subject. Measuring 16 by 12 inches on a cradled panel, the warm palette and energetic brushwork combine to celebrate both the delicate beauty and radiant vitality of the flower, inviting an intimate appreciation of light and form.

Ahh so pretty. I didn’t think I’d have any sunflowers this year but a few late contenders decided to emerge from between the paving slabs 😍☀️

Shadowed Gardenia is a contemporary floral still life, 10 by 10 inch oil, focusing on a white gardenia caught in variations of light and shadow. Art lovers, this painting is available for purchase on 1stDibs.

Shadowed Gardenia, by Katherine Kean, offers a close exploration of a white gardenia, its large curved petals rendered with soft, textured brushstrokes that emphasize the subtle shifts between light and shadow. The composition centers the flower prominently, allowing the delicate nuances of its form to take full focus. Surrounding the bloom, broad green leaves rise and extend outward, framing the subject while adding depth and balance. The flower rests in a translucent purple vase, a cool, understated shape that contrasts with the muted background - a blend of blues and purples that recede quietly, enhancing the painting’s calm atmosphere. The interplay of light across the petals and leaves creates a serene mood, inviting reflection on the quiet beauty found in natural details. Measuring 10 by 10 inches and painted in oil on a quarter-inch panel, It is framed, floating style on risers, in a simple black wood frame. Framed dimensions are 11 x 11 x 1.25 inches. The work’s impressionistic textures and reserved color palette hold attention without overwhelming, drawing the viewer into the subtle complexity of shadow and form.
