Himalayan Thistle by Seok Yam Chew

Beautifully painted as always Seok. They remind me a little of the Scottish thistle, especially the leaves.

Fantastic colours Seok! I love the mixed ochre foreground against the purplish background and of course the flowers are just superb.

I tend to ignore floral subjects but this work drew me in and it is very good, not that I know much about flowers/plants

A painting which stands out Seok. The way the thistles are backlit really draws attention to them. Beautiful.

Thistles that sparkle, beautiful. You must be permanently jet-lagged Seok after all these locations

Wow is what I thought when I saw this. Esquisite colours and textures as well as the actual job of painting it! The light is amazing.
