Original artwork description:

Name for peony in Chinese means "beautiful" and in their culture it represents riches, prosperity and honor. And in the language of flowers, represents good fortune and a happy marriage. I chose green background for this painting to compliment the richness of flowers. I painted it from life on stretched linen canvas using professional grade oil paints.
For this painting I picked black wood frame with gold liner which is beautiful in its simplicity. The accented liner enhances the artwork placed inside. The frame width is 3-1/4". Painting is wired and ready to be hanged.

Painting size: 16" x 20" in
Framed size: 23" x 27" in

Painting was exhibited at ArtExpo New York;
"Flowers and Gardens Juried Show" 311 Gallery, Raleigh, NC;
"88th Grand National Exhibition" Salmagundi club, NY

Please note even though I photo my paintings in sunlight to show the colors as accurate as possible slight variation in color my occur due to different screens settings.
