Disappearing flowers

From my dining room table.

I feel there’s an interesting and curious organic ambiguity about this one…
It’s late here and I need some down time right now, but I shall come back to this…

I do find this painting intriguing, I keep coming back to look at it…
Do I want more explanation about it? No, I’m not sure I do, I like it’s ambiguity.
One can read different things into it; water stains on a tablecloth, marks left by fallen petals or leaves, etc…
And, if on a different scale, I can also see echos of the translucent microscopic forms of organisms like nematodes perhaps…

Thanks Mark. I really like the Japanese notion of ‘wabi sabi’. Part of which is the beauty of things coming into and going out of existence.
