Navy Sloth Paintings – Wildflower Festival
This is Wildflower Festival, a semi abstract wildflower oil painting. This vibrant happy piece would brighten up any wall with its eyecatching colour pallete. Painted using a range of iconic 70’s retro shades, this chilled out image is bringing festival vibes to my wildflower collection. My signature style works well on top of this highly textured background,. There’s just the right balance of florals in a pleasing peaceful composition.
As with most of my wildflower paintings, the background was created using a palette knife to drag the oil paint around the canvas creating movement and texture. I kept the sky white as it was such a strange day outside. Mid summer with no sign of the sun, only fluffy white clouds covering the whole sky. I simply had to recreate it!
I knew I wanted to create a vintage floral piece so opted for a neutral landscape the colour of barley, again using a palette knife. This was then left to dry before continuing. Once dry, I used thin nozzled tubes with thinned oil paints and added the wild, carefree strands that almost reach up to the sky. I then added my first section of abstract florals bringing a splash of yellow, orange and brown to the canvas.
I added my signature style wildflowers in carefully selected complimentary oil droplets to layer the piece up. The end result is simply charming, fun and peaceful. This striking piece will bring festival vibes even on the cloudiest of days.
