About the Item
Artist Comments
Vibrant irises bloom, their petals unfolding against a lush green backdrop. Sunlight filters through the leaves, casting a warm glow on the delicate flowers. Soft brushstrokes create a dreamy effect on the garden scene.
About the Artist
Artist Hilary Gomes draws inspiration from her visits to Filoli Gardens to create a series of sunlit rose paintings. "Capturing the ephemeral beauty of blooming flowers serves as a metaphor for life, love, and family," says Hilary. She incorporates traditional French and Flemish methods with contemporary techniques to express transient nature and emotions. Hilary received her MFA in Painting and serves as the chair of the Department of Art at a college in Los Altos, California. She alternately works in her art studio on the first floor of her house and in her backyard, both of which provide her with the company of nature. When she's not painting, Hilary loves spending time with her children, practicing mindfulness, and traveling to California beach towns with her family.
