The Power and Beauty of Flowers is an exhibition by Northamptonshire professional artists and MA in Fine Art graduate from the University of Northampton. The visual symbolism and perpetual cycles of life and death of flowers have inspired this exhibition of paintings. Angela deals with the beauty and power of flowers; how flowers have the capacity to lift the human spirit and produce a positive emotional response. Flowers can be powerful; they can produce positive emotional responses from not only those who receive them but also in those who give them.
This exhibition demonstrate Angela’s obsession with the endless variety of patterns and shapes plus the intense colours of flowers. For Angela “Nature is ever changing; there is beauty to behold in every step. Each of us has the choice of simply seeing a flower or something much more. I love to take flowers and enhance their drama, which can allow you to view them in a completely different way”.

Angela is a botanical artist who adds a modern & abstract twist to her work that draws you to look at flowers in a new light. She has recently had work selected for the Society of Botanical Artists Annual Exhibition in London, plus has been part of the joint exhibition ‘Tidelines & Tulips’ at The Rugby Art Gallery & Museum and recent solo exhibition at The Charles Rennie Mackintosh House & Galleries, 78 Derngate, Northampton.
