Flowers for Baudelaire

This is basically a reaction to Baudelaire’s ‘Les Fleurs du Mal“… Something I was reading at the time. I figured I’d do a painting that represented the flowers in the title. I’m not sure if the painting looks particularly “evil” or not but I think our culture’s idea of what that might entail has probably changed a bit over nearly two centuries. Like most of my paintings of the past few years, it’s oil on acrylic on panel. 18 by 24 inches.
