Wildflower Festival – Retro-Inspired Wildflower Oil Painting by Navy Sloth

Wildflower Festival is a joyful semi-abstract oil painting full of movement, colour, and those easygoing retro vibes. Painted in a vibrant palette of iconic 70s-inspired shades, this feel-good floral piece brings sunshine and soul to any space—even when the clouds are out. It’s part of my wildflower collection and captures that laid-back festival energy we all love.

The composition is chilled yet dynamic, with my signature style wildflowers layered over a highly textured background. Pops of warm orange, mustard yellow and earthy browns dance through the piece, evoking long summer days, open fields, and the sound of music drifting on the breeze.

The Process

As with most of my floral pieces, the background was created using a palette knife to pull thick layers of oil paint across the canvas, building movement and rich texture. Inspired by a strange midsummer’s day—bright but overcast—I kept the sky white and neutral, letting the barley-toned landscape provide a soft, vintage base for the brighter florals to shine.

Once the background dried, I used thin nozzled tubes to add loose, carefree grasses stretching skyward. I followed with the first wave of abstract florals in yellows, oranges, and browns. My signature wildflower outlines were added last, along with carefully chosen oil paint droplets to build a playful, layered effect.

Why You’ll Love It
