Angel’s Trumpets – Oil on canvas painting by Marina Strijakova
I am Beauty, bowed down to the earth, as a deathly secret I hide deep inside. Only an angel’s lips can touch my petals; my pendulous blooms are a knell fatal. Adore me from a distance is all you must do. Underneath all of the splendor is the poisonous truth…
Angel trumpets feature in many good gardens, including the famous Sydney Centennial park. A true beauty, charismatic and captivating, attracting people and birds alike, but oh dangerous! Can you feel the enigma of these flowers in my painting?
This watercolour painting was recognised by judges and awarded with 3rd Prize in Sydney Royal Easter Arts and Craft show and 2nd prize in the Liverpool Art Society Art Prize.
“Angel trumpets” comes signed and framed, with a wire on the back ready for hanging.
