About Burnished Gold with Cream
Jennifer Hornyak’s series of floral oil paintings reimagine the classic still life.The rich colour palette—this piece in golden hues, blush, cream , green and purple echo traditional influences. The abstracted form and lavish brush strokes are modern and intended to suggest the flower as a metaphor.
“I don’t want to do flowers--flowers. As I always say, God does those!” Jennifer Hornyak
