About this artwork
One in a series of sunflower paintings where the subject is used as a starting point from which to develop more painterly and imaginative approaches to traditional still life compositions; introducing almost expressionistic and abstract elements suggested by the fall of light onto the flowers.

This painting is in oil on a 3mm MDF support.

« My work is original and authentic and is developing from the people, places, objects, or experiences I encounter in my life, from formal representation to creative abstraction. »
Peter Holt describes his work as always being representational in one way or another. The painter, who is based in the United Kingdom, creatively develops his compositions from an original observation of reality. Holt's artistic approach exploits the essential qualities of the medium in order to achieve a unity of materials, technique, and subject. He often experiments different techniques for subjects, which leads to a variety of interpretations and variations on a particular theme.
