“I equate peonies with love because they’re the first blooms of summer.” – Isaac Mizrahi
When two become one.
Their coalescing symbolises the unity of two souls embarking into eternity on their wedding day.
The enveloping organisation of petals, produced through pigment gesture the intricacy and balance of a life shared with ones beloved. These petals, in their elaborate interfolding have a textural dimension achieved through the glazing and layering of paint.
These two watercolour painted peonies float on a veil of bridal lace or linen material.

This version places the peonies on a linen material underlay, which offers a natural warmth to the composition.
The Ketubah is also offered in a lace material underlay (pictured below).
This Ketubah is a celebration of the blossoming of love, the blooming of new horizons and the beauty in harmony of a journey shared through life’s garden.
A symphony of maroons, magentas, fuchsias, grapes and lilacs cohere through the unfurling petals, awakened through soft watercolour washes and waltzes.

Let the love bloom and blossom like peonies in Spring
