"Red Bloom by the Window", acrylic on canvas panel, Bishop Maxim, 2025
A single red flower blooms boldly from a translucent vase, centered against a backdrop of luminous colors and rhythmic vertical strokes. This painting is a study in contrasts—light and shadow, stillness and vibration. Behind the flower, two stylized green window shutters frame a view of sky rendered in cool blues and purples, suggesting an interior and expansive space. Executed subtly reminiscent of David Hockney’s visual language—with its vivid palette, flattened perspective, and decorative clarity—the composition invites the viewer into a playful yet contemplative space. The brushwork is textured and insistent, as if each line were a whisper or a hymn, drawing the gaze into a layered meditation.
