Catherine Redmayne, Impressionist Floral Study, Original Watercolour, 1989 - An original watercolour painting on paper by Catherine Redmayne, dated 1989. The work is executed in a loose, impressionist style, depicting a dense floral arrangement of sweet peas or similar blossoms. The composition features a vibrant palette of deep purples, carmine reds, and blues, interspersed with soft yellow highlights and green stems. The artist employs a fluid wet-on-wet technique, resulting in soft, bleeding edges and a sense of movement. The painting is signed in dark pigment at the upper right corner REDMAYNE 89. The verso of the backing board features a white rectangular adhesive label printed with the text ORIGINAL WATERCOLOUR PAINTING BY CATHERINE REDMAYNE. Below the printed text, the artist has signed the label in blue ink Catherine Redmayne and inscribed the date 8/89. The work is housed in a contemporary glass clip frame with four visible metal clips at the margins and a hardboard backing.
