Here we see JD using her expert eye for fine detail and delicate tones along with her love of the natural world all colliding in a wonderful mix of colour textures and subject. The tonal change from reds to greys encapsulated within, and in some areas spilling over, the 24ct Gold leaf detailing really draws the eye as a whole, but I guarantee the smaller details and charms of the poppies, freesias and Greenfinches will continue to keep the viewer interested and intrigued. Jacquelines exceptional attention to detail from paper choice to packaging and certification always mean you get a lot more from the experience of purchasing her artwork than the sum of its parts.
