This piece entitled 'Blue Hydrangeas' is by local artist Louise Lennon. Louise is a contemporary realist artist with a distinctive style and has been exploring a concept from Japanese Art called Notan, which focuses on the balance of light and dark, positive and negative spaces. She aims to convey the warmth from the sunlight by emphasising the warm tones in the palette; using pinks and oranges where the sunlight is hitting the subject and contrasting that with cooler tones in the shadow.

The painting has been professionally framed in a white wooden frame to complement the piece and is not behind glass so that the true texture can be appreciated. You can view all prints and original painting by Louise Lennon here.
