Peggie Blizard’s floral paintings draw inspiration from her ancestral home near the Rhine, blending the rich textures of 1700s Spanish still life masters with the formal clarity of early Corot. Her works, infused with vibrant contemporary colors, transcend mere beauty to become powerful statements of space and form. With meticulous attention to detail and composition, Blizard’s floral art honors the timeless tradition of classic floral painting while creating a unique, modern expression of nature’s elegance.
