About Fleurs avec nuages

This charming oil painting is by Jennifer Hornyak, a beloved Canadian artist. The Montreal-based painter is known for her expressive, abstracted form and her rich colour palette. This floral ‘portrait’—Fleurs avec nuages (Flowers with clouds) features a small bright bouquet—purple, deep red, blue, melon and pale yellow flowers in a clear glass vase that allows the viewer to see through to the deep green of the background. An expressive ‘sky’—the white clouds frame the top of the canvas.

“I don’t want to do flowers—flowers. As I always say, God does those!” Jennifer Hornyak
