Dark Floral II
"My intention for ‘Dark Floral II’ was to paint with increased detail and sharpness. The main flower (an imagined dahlia) has many petals that are sharply delineated in bright highlights and deep shadows, radiating out from the flower’s heart."
This dramatic, large-scale floral wallpaper is the first sequel to my original ‘Dark Floral’. Just like its predecessor, ‘Dark Floral II Black Desaturated’ is inspired by the still life paintings of the Dutch Golden Age.
I painted this print after my ‘Dark Floral’ wallpaper design had gone viral on Pinterest and was beginning to appear in blogs and magazines.
What’s really fantastic about this print is that it's scalable. The large white dahlia can be enlarged from 47 cm (18.5”) to 141 cm (55.5”) in diameter. The larger scale allows the print function as a large floral mural, darkly feminine and incredibly dramatic. We’ve seen this design used beautifully in powder rooms with a metal framed mirror, dining rooms with pretty white built-ins, bedrooms, dressing rooms and more.
We can’t wait to see what you do with it!
