… to British painter Dan Bennettfor capturing the beauty of blossoms from bud to full bloom in his whimsical paintings.  A tree surgeon and gardener armed with a fine arts degree, Dan (now a full time artist) began creating these magical pieces in his free time and whenever it was too wet, cold or dark to work in the flower beds.

The vibrant floral forms have already captured the eye of gallery owners and collectors and the imagination of stationers and fabric designers worldwide…  We can’t wait to see where Dan’s work pops up next!
