A bouquet with the confidence to carry an entire room.
This vintage original oil on canvas is pure abundance: poppies and garden blooms rising from a deep blue vase, rendered in saturated notes of vermilion, saffron, cornflower, lilac, and green. The brushwork is loose and broken, giving the composition movement, sensuality, and that distinctly French quality of feeling at once lush, cultivated, and a little undone.
The piece carries the color freedom and decorative ease of mid-century post-impressionist floral painting, while remaining spirited and refined. Its color is generous, but never strident. Its presence is unmistakable, yet it keeps a certain softness. The gilt frame lends structure and polish, while the cool blue of the vase steadies the composition and lets the blooms glow.
Why We Love It
We love its balance of richness and ease. The artist uses bold, confident color without losing softness, and the bouquet avoids stiffness entirely. The blue vase grounds the composition beautifully, while the scattered notes of paint across the tabletop keep the whole work alive. The overall effect is deeply inviting, full of warmth, movement, and charm. It is decorative, certainly, but it also has real painterly presence.

DELIVERY & RETURNS
DELIVERY & RETURNS
A Note on August Shipping
Each August, much of France takes a well-earned pause to enjoy la vie. Some of our French friends and partners who help us source, prepare, and send our paintings have already headed off to do summer properly. A little patience may be required during this time. Consider it a small invitation to borrow a page from the French way of living: exhale. Orders placed during this period may occasionally take a little longer than usual. Pieces already in Los Angeles are unaffected and ready to ship as usual.
If you are purchasing for a time-sensitive project, please reach out before ordering and we’ll happily confirm the timeline for the specific piece.
✈️ Shipping & Delivery
We offer free shipping for all orders, with an expedited option available for those who consider waiting for art a form of exquisite torture. All items are insured and carefully packaged to ensure they arrive safely. Delivery typically takes 5–15 business days, depending on your location.
🇺🇸 U.S. customers: All of our pieces are exempt from import duties and tariffs. We provide the correct documentation to ensure your order clears customs smoothly.
🇬🇧 UK customers: Antique artworks are duty-free and qualify for a reduced 5% VAT at import, not the full rate.
🌍 Customers in other countries: Duties and taxes vary, but original and antique artworks often qualify for reduced or zero import fees. Please check with your local customs office for details. We’re happy to assist and provide any documentation you may need.
If you have questions about shipping or customs, please don’t hesitate to message us at hellorawbrush@gmail.com, we’re here to help.
Most of our paintings will be shipped straight from France unless specified otherwise. While we aim to send them your way as quickly as possible, very occasional delays may occur, as some of our beloved French partners have a certain je ne sais quoi and like to take their time preparing the paintings. You can’t rush good things in life, after all—and we’re talking about antique and vintage paintings here.
