May contain hope: Rhododendrons in Dartlands Springtime 3

The third and final panel of the Dartlands rhododendron series, Springtime 3 completes Alice Gavin Atashkar’s vivid, exuberant homage to the most joyful season. In this painting the canopy opens slightly, and the light falls differently - the dots of foliage above take on an almost mosaic quality, while the rhododendron blooms below vibrate with that distinctive pink that feels impossible until you are standing in front of it. For Alice, this kind of overwhelming natural beauty is never purely decorative: it points towards something larger, a sense of the sacred in the everyday that runs through all her practice. It performs best in homes with a long wall or dining room where the full triptych can be shown as a sequence - together, the three canvases create an immersive, panoramic sense of being inside the landscape rather than looking at it. For collectors looking for a set of original works that will define a room rather than simply decorate it, Springtime 1, 2 and 3 acquired together are a genuinely rare proposition. Equally powerful as a standalone work. Presented in a floating Obeche wood frame, ready to hang.
