“The real joy is being in the rhythm of nature”  Pam Gregory

620mm x 915mm

Oil on canvas

The painting was inspired by the beautiful sweetness of  Vincent van Gogh’s floral paintings and the vibrant whole-hearted passion of Joan Mitchell’s lyrical, gestural paintings. I also drew inspiration from Pink’s album Beautiful Trauma and the rain-drenched camellias, hibiscus’ and other flowers in my artist’s garden outside the studio as I painted on a rainy Easter Sunday during my Dancing in a Field of Flowers art exhibition.

In an interview for The Guardian, Pink explained, “I named the album Beautiful Trauma because life is fucking traumatic. There’s natural disasters at every turn”. She continued, “but there’s beautiful people [sic] in the world that are having a blast and being good to each other and helping others. Because I can be dark, I try to constantly remind myself that there’s more good than bad”

I went in search of beautiful trauma amongst the flower garden, and then began to paint. I’ve received lovely feedback about this painting.
