Gorgeous mid century still life by listed artist Gerhard Karlmark from Sweden. Excellent use of color and composition. It's so hard to create movement in flower paintings but Karlmark has succeeded with his use of color, shape and line. The neutral background helps create depth and really accentuates the flowers that are so beautifully painted. A timeless still life. International Delivery with DHL included in price.
