Bead Embroidery Pattern on Art Canvas "Roses"

“Roses” — roses in a glass jug with fruit on the table, in a warm peach-and-pink palette.

What the picture shows

The bouquet holds white, cream, yellow and soft pink roses with large open heads, interspersed with sprigs of small black berries and broad green leaves. The jug is clear, with a tall handle and pale highlights along its edge. On the table lie a bunch of green grapes, yellow apples and pears, a spray of small red berries and a large green leaf. The background is soft pink, lilac and peach drapery with no sharp detail. Coverage is partial: the flowers, foliage, fruit and the jug itself are beaded, while the background and the cloth stay printed. The bouquet is built as a pyramid with the palest roses gathered at the centre, so the eye goes straight to them and only then travels down to the fruit.
