ABOUT THE WORK

"San Francisco embraces authenticity, fostering a culture where individuals can confidently express their true selves. The city's energy mirrors the California poppy’s adaptability to thrive in various environments and blooms vibrantly even in challenging conditions.

The golden hue of the poppy, signifying hope and creativity, mirrors the innovative spirit and forward-thinking nature of San Franciscans. The historic brick building is painted with a hue that embraces uniqueness. In contrast, the abstract blue petal-like forms suggest an innovative futuristic design crafted from materials yet to be discovered. This painting represents the city's vibrancy of its people, culture, history, and future."Renée Switkes

This work is included in the "Urban Tides: A San Francisco Story" group exhibition at Voss Gallery (July 13 - August 17, 2024).

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Renée's journey into floral painting began as a tribute to Phyllis Semple, whose love for flowers deeply influenced her. Phyllis' encouragement and the inspiration drawn from Georgia O'Keeffe's independent spirit further fueled the the artist's passion.
