Artwork Description:

Title: Yvonne’s Bouquet

This painting was especially created for a prize draw Arti ran. The lucky winner was to receive an Arti print featuring a painting by me, the artist, with the subject of their choice. The lovely winner, Yvonne, gave me some photos of her gorgeous weeding bouquet, and inspired by this I imagined them in a wild garden waiting to be gathered together for their special moment!

I loved creating this tangled weave of colourful flowers and foliage (especially loved the Sea Holly) – I hope you will love it as much as Yvonne does.

Artist Bio:

My name’s Karen Johnson and I'm the Derby based artist behind Millie Moth. Inspired by my wild garden, my work falls into 2 styles - one uses alcohol inks to paint vibrant flowers, and the other is created digitally using elements of my paintings, drawings and isolated photographic images. My work is full of colour and I aim to convey the happiness I feel when I’m around flowers and foliage. There is such a wealth of life in every small growing space and I try to capture that beauty and vigour by injecting a little wildness and joy into every piece.
