About the Item
Amanda Besl
Petrichor, 2025
Oil on panel
Signed on reverse
Vibrant yet quietly contemplative, Petrichor by Amanda Besl showcases the artist’s signature fusion of botanical surrealism and atmospheric landscape. Executed in luminous oil on a shaped oval panel, this work draws the viewer into a dreamlike portal where delicate Queen Anne’s lace and Venus flytraps loom large against a moody sky and reflective waterway. Besl’s handling of paint is fluid and precise, allowing textures to both shimmer and decay, a visual echo of the title’s allusion to the earthy scent after rain.
The painting's circular energy and radiant yellow hues suggest both blooming and rupture—an otherworldly lens on the natural world that is at once intimate and vast. With a practice rooted in observation and psychological symbolism, Besl’s compositions bridge scientific illustration and romantic nostalgia, offering a deeply personal response to cycles of growth and erosion.
A compelling addition to any collection that values contemporary painting with a unique voice in feminist and environmental art.
