Lantern Bloom: Lime and Gold Petal Fan on Black

A fan of ruffled lime-green and yellow petals glows against a black rectangle. The whole image has a thick, swirling oil-paint texture. An olive-green and golden-brown painterly border surrounds the black panel like a frame.

A flower that looks lit from inside. Ruffled lime and gold petals fan out of a deep black panel, and the thick, swirling paint texture carries into the olive border around them. Most floral art is soft, pale or pastel. This one is dark, saturated and tactile. The black gives it weight on a wall, and the glowing petals give the eye somewhere to land.
