This painting just evolved, I have to be excited about all the elements, flowers, vase, background and foreground. I used the fabric because it reminds me of water and the amaryllis were so intransigent, I wanted to throw against them something that was broken and fluid. The pomegranates have mosaics inside them like the background.
