Artwork Overview

Solar Flare – Original yellow carnation Painting is an original photorealistic carnation painting that channels the intensity of a burning sun through layered acrylics on fine linen. Using both transparent glazes and opaque strokes, I built up serrated, fringed petals in reds, light oranges and radiant yellows to produce a photoreal, high-impact Large botanical artwork. Designed for collectors and luxury interiors, this large, signed artwork arrives ready to hang and bring exuberant warmth to any space.

Symbolism & Story of the Solar Flare –Original yellow carnation Painting

The carnation’s layered petals in Solar Flare Painting mimic solar flares erupting from the sun—therefore the work celebrates courage, vitality, and luminous charm. Moreover, the yellow and orange tones stimulate optimism and reduce visual tension, so this piece both energizes and soothes a room. If you enjoy works that celebrate symbolism and duality, explore related pieces such as Wavelength and Refraction which echo similar themes of feminine force and botanical elegance.
