Banksia

This elegant painting captures the serene beauty of the Australian banksia in full detail. Set against a rich, deep navy background with sweeping indigo undertones, the soft silvery-white flower becomes the luminous focal point of the composition.

Fine textured brushwork brings the banksia bloom to life, showcasing its layered florets in shades of cream, pale gold and subtle grey-green. Surrounding the flower are natural olive-toned leaves, their gentle curves and serrated edges creating a harmonious balance against the dramatic backdrop. The golden stem adds warmth, anchoring the piece with earthy simplicity.

This artwork exudes tranquility and understated sophistication — a celebration of Australian native flora that fits beautifully into coastal, contemporary or nature-inspired interiors.

This is an original work in acrylic of stretched canvas and is ready to hang, a small work measuring 20cms x 15cms.
