- Jules Elie Peonies by Katharine Rowe floral painting of peoniesBy Katharine RoweLocated in London, GBKatharine spent a long time mixing paint to reach the right level of smokiness and avoid any saccharine pink in these peonies. They seem to be quite solid but at the same time quite delicate, they are a joy to paint.
