Attempted Roses

 

Some time around the year 2000 I began a multi-paneled wall mural consisting of a lattice of roses. It was an attempt to fuse a flower theme with a decorative abstract style. The multiple panels remained unseen in a plastic bag at my Parent's house for twenty years, until recently, when I got the pieces back to Montreal. The backs of them were mostly blank but some had unfinished paintings. In this painting, I completed an unfinished rose design with new variations on the theme. Old elements were combined with new, so I have to date this painting with two years 2000 and 2023! Perhaps I will try and assemble the original rose panels and take a picture to see what it actually looked like.
