About the Item

Summer Floral Susan Meeks oil on canvas 48" x 48" Susan is a native Houstonian. She is passionate about oil painting, specializing in large scale florals as seen in Summer Floral which is part of The Floral Series. Floral bouquets can symbolize a variety of emotions, including love, friendship, joy, gratitude, sympathy, and apology: Love: Flowers are often a symbol of love and affection, and giving someone a bouquet can show that you care about them. Friendship: Some flowers are seen as symbols of friendship and purity. The number of flowers in a bouquet can also carry meaning. For example, 19 flowers is customary for a wedding and means "be together all your life" Artist Statement: My work explores the vibrant and emotional spectrum through the delicate medium of floral imagery. I paint flowers to capture various moods. Each bloom is not merely a representation of nature's beauty, but a symbol of the myriad of emotions that people experience. In my paintings, fresh flowers serve as a metaphor for life's moments and the intensity of human emotions. The freshness of flowers symbolizes new beginnings and hope. Intricate layers and delicate petals represent love, passion and light. Through this interplay of color and form my art seeks to convey connections between nature, emotion and the human spirit. She was inspired to start painting florals when she began photographing flowers on her daily walks. Susan is an early childhood educator and teaches at a private school in Houston. She is a member of the Lassaulx studio in Houston, Texas. Susan graduated from HCC with honors with a degree in Fine Arts. She studied at the Glassell School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. Susan Meeks also studied at the University of St. Thomas.

By Stephanie Peek
