Item Description
Original painting by Chloë Holt RCA FRSA. One of the youngest artists ever to be elected a member of the RCA. Winner of the 2012 Kyffin Williams Drawing Prize, Chloe also, in 2010 won the International Lorenzo il Magnifico prize by the Florence Biennale for works on paper.
"Negrita captures a moment at the beginning of spring, when the world starts to loosen its grip on winter and colour quietly returns. The painting centres around parrot tulips and roses—flowers that, to me, symbolise both fragility and strength. Their forms are sculptural, almost unruly, yet they hold themselves with a grace that feels deeply rooted in the earth’s seasonal rhythms.
These blooms are painted not as decoration, but as living forms caught in transition—unfurling, tilting, reaching towards light. The composition is expressive and textured, reflecting the energy and unpredictability of early spring. In Negrita, I was interested in capturing not just the appearance of flowers, but the atmosphere around them: the air, the stillness, the sense of something beginning. It is both a botanical study and a quiet celebration of seasonal change—where new life is felt before it is fully seen."
Oil and gesso on board in antique frame.
126 x 67cm unframed size.
