Scent of Beauty


The Idea

This piece isn't a calculated statement; it’s an instinct. It captures a moment of being completely occupied by a single, physical thing—the scent of a heavy rose. It’s a visual circuit breaker for a busy mind, a command to stop strategizing and just anchor yourself in the present.

The Work

I don’t map these pieces out on a grid; I work intuitively. The heavy crimson of the rose and the scraped, scrawled lines in the background weren't planned out in advance. They are the result of letting the paint move how it needs to. I left the early, raw marks and canvas grain visible because I’m not interested in a perfectly polished finish. The focus is on the feeling of the paint, not the rules of composition.

The Point

This piece is for the person who spends too much time living in their own head. It’s an intimate, bold anchor for a room that reminds you to trust your gut, breathe, and reconnect with the physical world.

THE COLLECTOR'S EXPERIENCE

I am in total awe of her talent and the intention to detail she incorporated into this masterpiece. She has captured my expression and personality beautifully. Classic with a contemporary elegant twist, far exceeding my own vision. I am so pleased I trusted Tash’s judgment and style to create something so beautiful that will be treasured forever. I will definitely use Tash again for future commissions.

There is a depth to the painting - a darkness & light - that evokes a sense of evolution, acceptance & serenity. Tash is a talented artist. I will continue to follow her work with interest.

Tash is amazingly skilled; her paintings are beautiful and they evoke so many emotions. They make you reflect every time you look at them. I would happily fill my house with her paintings.

It has this layered beauty to it that I find incredibly calming and majestic. You can see and feel the heart, soul and passion you pour into every detail of your creations. Your art style is a stunning form of self-expression and story telling, and it's also such a wonderful reflection of the thoughtful, beautiful and inspiring person that you are.

Absolutely in love with our new artwork! This piece of art is beautiful and as soon as I saw it, I just knew I had to have it in our house. It is the second painting we have in our house by Tash and I am sure it will not be the last.
