An Impressionistic Contemporary Painting of a Young Bride or Bridesmaid in a beautiful flowing gown. Romantic and ethereal, this painting is a thought-provoking atmospheric piece.

With it’s simplicity and delicate lines, this romantic Canvas Painting has a subtlety and loose quality painted in my ‘Less is More’ style of artwork.

I created this painting whilst in ‘lockdown’.

For a while I have been thinking of all the Weddings that have had to be cancelled this year, 2020. The heart and soul that couples and their families put into planning a wedding are immense, not to mention the expense, and I can’t imagine what it must be like to have to cancel or postpone one of the biggest, most exciting events in one’s life.

I put a canvas on my easel not knowing what I was going to create (as always!) and this romantic piece came out. I hope you like her, it’s a feeling from within every single time I create a piece.

I have used subtle warm tones to represent the delicate bride’s skin and there are hints of rainbow hues highlighting her flowing wedding gown and gentle splashes of colours to achieve a soft ‘glowing’ effect.

*This Painting of a Bride on Canvas has not been glazed with any medium, therefore it has a matt surface but the paints used for highlights and lowlights have a slight sheen to them and catch the light beautifully from certain angles.

Please note : I do NOT recommend hanging any painting in an environment which is prone to high humidity or heat.
