Agave Artichoke

On a dark navy background comes a perfectly symmetrical pattern work of blooming flowers, layers of petals and winding leaves. Allport creates a mesmerising floral motif centering on artichoke flowers, the pastel colours with hints of red cast the eye towards an amazing red bloom which eerily looks back at the audience. Whether seed or eye, this painting is full of mystery found within beautifully rendered deep colours and buttery textures.
