A delicate balance between beauty and chaos, Petals and Thorns intertwines soft, floral hues with jagged, energetic strokes, evoking the duality of nature and emotion. Vivid greens, yellows, and pinks flow like petals caught in a storm, while the more aggressive shapes and lines suggest the prickly side of life. A true visual dance of contrasts, delicate yet bold, serene yet wild, captures the essence of life’s ups and downs, much like the way petals brush against thorns in a garden. The viewer is presented with both a celebration and a confrontation of the beautiful complexities we all face.
