Flourish and Strength

Flourish

For the Flourish collection, Caroline drew inspiration from flowers and women. Pastel shades take center stage in most of the paintings in this collection. The paintings were photographed in Dutch flower fields and with flowers. The women are portrayed partially abstract and partially realistically. The clothing flows seamlessly into the flowers. In the background of each painting, you can see straight lines in various shades of color. In all the paintings, you can see details of paint splatters.

This girl is wearing white and blue clothing combined with red roses. The background of the painting is a soft yellow, and the girl has an open expression and posture. She’s a bit shy. Her earring is also a small rose.

strength

This collection is called “Strength.” Here, the influence of the catwalk is clearly visible. All the women have almost the same pose. It is a collection where the challenge lay in creating completely different women in different colors, from just black and white to very colorful. They all stand strong in life and don’t let anyone tell them what to do. Power is what binds these women together. In all the paintings, you can see details of paint splatters, metallic spray paint, and gold or silver leaf.
During the period when Caroline created these works, she lived in London. This collection was photographed in various locations in London.

All artworks: Price: € 1495,- / size: 60 cm X 80 cm.
