About the Artwork:
Both of my paintings in this exhibition, White Rose Fairy (Rosa Alba) and Peony Fairy (Paeonia Suffruticosa), bloom from the same gentle spirit, a celebration of spring’s quiet magic and the hidden life within flowers. Both were started in springtime and completed for this exhibition, unfolding slowly like petals in the sun.
The white rose glows with iridescent reflections: hints of yellow, lilac, green, and soft pink shimmer through the dew-kissed petals. Nestled among the leaves, a tiny green fairy hides, as if returning to her secret garden. In contrast, the bold fuchsia peony bursts with rich violet undertones. A lilac-purple fairy hovers above it, radiant and light as a breeze, resting delicately atop the bloom.
Each painting is cradled in a solid wooden frame, painted by hand and adorned with precious details. Pearls embellish the rose’s frame, while the peony is graced with tiny crystal butterflies. Both frames feature a hand-sculpted resin plaque, painted in gold, inscribed with the Latin names of the flowers — a small tribute to their timeless beauty and enduring grace. – Simona Candini
