About the Item
Artist Commentary
This painting was on display during the East Austin Studio tour. It is #2 of my "Vexation" painting series. The first painting was just vines, this (the second) one has leaves, the third had roses and the fourth is winter. It took me a great deal of time to paint all of the leaves. I love this painting because of the female imagery and ambiguous space I created. I've been told that this painting reminds them of Magritte's surreal paintings.

Mighty oak on a gold-leaf background by Italian botanical artist
By Margherita Leoni
Located in Milan, IT
The artist has an elegant mark of nature, and the experience of working en plein air allows her to capture emotions that would otherwise not be possible.
She is considered Italy's best botanical artist and collaborates with many botanical gardens where she also holds watercolour courses, a technique she masters like few contemporary artists.
The artist herself prepared the background in real, stainless gold, which gives it a modern, warm surface that chameleonically matches the colours of the surrounding walls.
Margherita Leoni was born and raised in Italy, however, she spent most of her adult life in San Paulo, Brazil. It was there that she started a collaboration with the botanical faculty of the local university, allowing her to develop interesting research in rare botanical species studies and drawings. For this reason, most of her artworks, illustrate Brasilian botanical species, both rare and common. The artist's mastery of watercolour allows her to take part in botanical expeditions where she paints in plein air. Given her exquisite watercolour technique and her extensive botanical knowledge, Margherita Leoni is considered the heir of Margaret Mee.
Among her most important exhibitions, three of her artworks were selected by Shirley Sherwood...
