Rory J. Browne
Daisies and Thistles -original floral landscape oil painting-contemporary ART

2025

About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. "Daisies and Thistles in the Orchard" captures the beauty of nature in full bloom. Painted in oil on canvas, Rory J Browne's contemporary realist landscape style brings the vibrancy of the orchard to life. The artist skillfully uses sweeping brushstrokes and layers of oil paint to evoke the soft texture of the delicate daisies and the sturdy, wild nature of the thistles, creating a sense of depth and movement that pulls the viewer into the scene. The color palette in this piece is a harmonious blend of warm yellows and whites, accentuated by the rich greens of the foliage. The light, almost ethereal yellow of the daisies contrasts beautifully with the deeper greens of the background, bringing a sense of freshness and tranquility. The purple hues of the thistles add a pop of color that balances the composition, giving the painting an organic, untamed feeling. These thoughtful color choices work together to convey the natural balance found in the orchard, inviting the viewer to pause and reflect. Browne’s attention to detail, from the texture of the petals to the delicate leaves swaying in the breeze, showcases his meticulous approach to painting. This piece invites the viewer to step into the serene world of an orchard, a place where nature flourishes in all its spontaneous glory. The piece captures the quiet energy of the environment, making it an exceptional addition to any collection that celebrates the beauty of the natural world. Artist Biography: Rory J Browne graduated from Chelsea School of Art in 1988 and initially worked as a freelance artist mainly within the corporate sector. He specialises in painting vibrant and richly textured landscapes which often have a spiritual as well as a representational theme running through them. Rory has contributed to the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition on a number of occasions. His work is featured in public and private collections both in the UK and abroad, including British Gas, Rank Xerox, London Borough of Barnet and Hertfordshire County Council. Rory has won a number of prestigious awards and been featured in numerous articles, including Country Living magazine (July 2007). A graduate of the Chelsea School of Art, Rory now lives in Harpenden, Hertfordshire with his wife and three sons. AWARDS 1994 Winner of the Apthorp Award for Young Artists Paintings purchased for the London Borough of Barnet 1992 Finalist in Department of Transport Competition 1991 – 1992 Finalist in Hunting Observer Art Competition, highly Commended 1991 Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation Award 1990 First Prize and Category Award in Artist at Work Competition 1988 The Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation Award. Through my paintings I seek primarily to reflect the vibrancy and beauty of the created world around us. But they also often allude to a spiritual theme as well as a representational one. This reflects my belief that our inherent creativity is itself a reflection of a creator God, whose work we see in landscape but who is also deeply concerned for human needs and the individual. It is my intention within each work to capture a sense of time and place. I would hope to present the viewer with a distilled image that would elicit a response of: “I’ve been there …” If my work achieves this sort of response, then it has done the job that I set out to do. My hope is also that as you browse through the site, you will not see just pictures and images, but find peace and meaning in the midst of your busy and demanding life.

Large Scale Winter Twilight Landscape Painting by Artist Mauritz Lindström
Located in Stockholm, SE
This stunning winter landscape by Mauritz Lindström captures the serene yet striking beauty of a snow-laden scene illuminated by the warm glow of twilight. The interplay between the soft, colorful hues of the evening sky and the intricate, frost-covered branches creates an almost three-dimensional effect, drawing the viewer into the composition. The detailed rendering of the snow and the trees evokes a profound sense of coldness, making the atmosphere almost palpable. Measuring an impressive 101 x 152 cm (39 3/4 x 59 7/8 in) with the frame, this large-scale work is a testament to Lindström's mastery of light and texture. Arvid Mauritz Lindström...
