Coral Unique, Abstract Painting

Artist Comments
Artist Natalie George frequently uses dramatic storylines as inspiration for the images she chooses to paint. For this abstract bouquet, she says the piece started with "Behind the door stood one dozen coral roses..." Natalie says these lines are intended as a short story prompt. "Add your own characters for a floral fantasy."

About the Artist
Natalie George has been an artist her entire life. A college semester in Italy introduced her to the tradition of realism. After mastering this classical style, she began to experiment with abstraction in her work. Natalie now paints heavily abstracted landscapes, combining unexpected colors to create interpretations of reflective bodies of water. Her work recalls both modernism and the gilded compositions of 20th Century Austrian painter Gustav Klimt. The artist’s process begins with visiting a location and shooting reference photographs, followed by sketches on paper, before finally turning to canvas. Natalie’s paintings reward the patient viewer, who will discover delicate horizon lines, trees, and fluid reflections within her hazy abstractions.
