About White with Pink and Indigo

Elegant and evocative, Jennifer Hornyak’s beautiful floral paintings are inspired by German Expressionism and early 20th century Flauvist masters such as Matisse. This single pink blossom sits in a vase against a deep indigo blue background. Hornyak’s work blurs the line between figuration and abstraction.The Montreal based artist achieves such rich textures by applying layer upon layer of glaze.

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