In "Wild Iris", Penny Whent transforms a classic still life into a bold, modern statement. Deep violet blossoms emerge from a vivid cobalt vase, their forms simplified into expressive brushstrokes that blur the line between realism and abstraction. Set against a soft, layered backdrop of blues and neutrals, the composition radiates energy and spontaneity, capturing the essence of flowers rather than their detail. Both lyrical and contemporary, this abstract floral painting is ideal for collectors who appreciate modern art with timeless subject matter.
About the Artist:
Penny’s artistic journey began in childhood, influenced by her architect‑photographer father in Pacific Grove. Penny is largely self-taught, having explored block printing, watercolor, photography, and drawing before embracing painting. Her art, once a part‑time practice during her years as a paralegal, now flourishes full‑time in her Monterey home studio. Penny translates the landscapes of the Monterey Peninsula, Lake Tahoe, and the Sierra Nevada foothills into post and abstract impressionist canvases that glow with emotive color and expressive still lifes. Her work has been featured in numerous galleries throughout the Monterey Bay area, including Carmel, Pacific Grove, and Big Sur.
