A sense of fullness and quiet resolution emerges in A Gathering of Peonies, where the blooms come together as a unified presence rather than individual forms. This work completes the arc of the Dancing Peonies collection, embracing abundance, connection, and the beauty of elements arriving all at once.
I approached this painting with the same intuitive sensibility, allowing the peonies to gather across the canvas through layered color and sustained gesture. The composition feels settled yet alive—lush without excess, expansive without urgency. Movement remains, but it is held gently, as though the flowers have found their place.
Painting, for me, is a practice of attention and trust.
In this final piece, the peonies reflect togetherness—how beauty expands when forms are allowed to meet, overlap, and rest in relationship to one another. The energy is less about motion forward and more about presence.
As the third painting in the Dancing Peonies collection, A Gathering of Peonies brings the series into balance. The works may be collected individually or curated together, offering a complete visual and emotional journey across the three paintings.

A Gathering of Peonies was created as part of the Dancing Peonies series, an expressive floral trilogy exploring movement, scale, and emotional presence. Painted in my backyard studio through an intuitive, layered process, the work brings together the visual language developed across the series and serves as the culminating piece within the collection.
