"Swept Away," 20" x 20"

"Swept Away," 20" x 20"Acrylic on Canvas. I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers. Claude Monet Flowers are such a constant inspiration for me. I never tire of trying to capture their beauty on canvas! Halifax based acrylic artist Raquel Roth is inspired by bold colours and the beauty of natural elements, especially florals. Raquel is constantly amazed at the range of emotions that art can evoke and she loves sharing the joy she feels when she is painting.

The landscape was breathtaking
