Hope Renewed by Danielle O'Connor Akiyama

Drawing a close to the 'Hope Renewed' series, Danielle O'Connor Akiyama, this compositional painting of her lovingly recognised flowers.

The bottom of her canvas shows a portrayal of how she draws with her paint, using swift and lose movements, allow her creative process to become a focal point of this piece.

Using both Eastern and Western artistic influences show a stylistic fusion and broaden her audience who all admire her stunning work!

In addition to the previous canvas, Akiyama creates a strong follow up. There is a visual language which transpires into this image, creating a connection in series.

It is the intricate, gentle details which draw me in, urging me to take a closer look. These areas are shown with the flicker of a small brush, creating specs of paint in the surrounding areas of the flowers.

Truly a beautiful canvas to be in possession of!
