About Petit panier vert

A small, lime green panier brimming with blossoms in pink, orange and yellow is set on a green striped cloth and in front of a turquoise lit window in this intimate oil painting on panel. Hornyak is known for her still life and figurative paintings rendered in vivid colours with rich textured surfaces -- surfaces that are created over time through many layered glazes. The bold colours and flattened picture plane in this work reveals the influence of the modern French Fauvist masters such as Henri Matisse and Andre Derain.

Framed dimensions for this painting are 10.75 x 12.75 inches
