This artwork shows the beauty and elegance of a plant starting to blossom, but may also be taken as a symbol for the positive development of the character of a person. The choice of the colours made by the artist underlines this idea whereby the use of gold stands for the precious value, the magenta for the power of life and the grey, black and white for the different aspects of experiences. The Viennese artist Brigitte Thonhauser-Merk expresses her love for harmonious colours and clear lines in joyful paintings full of power and elegance, where her cultural heritage of the Jugendstil meets with impressions from nature and the great masters of the past she met during several trips to Paris. More than 120 sole and group exhibitons in four continents. Several international awards.
