This work is a vibrant piece of joy. I have grown Bougainvillea's many times in my gardens, both in Australia and in my time spent in South Africa. The flowers are fascinating, as the petals fall they change colour as do some of the flowers during the season, this work represents those changes in the season. Full of thick impasto brush strokes this work has many many layers, there is a fullness to the final brush strokes giving it that sense of the texture from the real flowers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"q4tvle JqSWld yqQS1\" aria-label=\"Tell me about this artwork in one or two sentences.\" aria-disabled=\"true\" role=\"textbox\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Artist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoTitle\" align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGold Coast artist Karen Goddard creates abstract and impressionistic artworks, influenced by brightly coloured florals and organic landscapes from Australia.
