This painting, titled "DAISY (GERBERA) STUDY II," is simple yet expressive. The focal point is a yellow daisy, slanted in a glass that is only depicted by its rim, adding a modern and abstract aesthetic. The background is split into light and dark green, with the yellow daisy positioned against the darker shade, enhancing its brightness and drawing attention. The composition not only highlights the vivacity and liveliness of the yellow daisy but also intensifies the visual impact through the contrast in background colours. The juxtaposition of yellow against dark green brings a natural and harmonious beauty to the scene, reflecting the artist's unique insight into colour usage. Overall, this artwork displays the unique charm and vitality of the daisy through clean lines and vivid colours, offering viewers an experience of art that is both simple and exquisitely elegant.
