Product description
The Strong Blue Dahlia is about growth that never stops. About the courage to start over again and again without erasing the past. Every layer carries the memory of the previous one, making the whole an authentic work.
This blue dahlia bears the traces of its own history. Not only in its form, but also in its skin. The work originated from a hand-cut linoleum printing plate, which itself became the final artwork. Over time, it went through multiple color phases. Old layers never completely disappeared but remained visible beneath new hues, creating a rich layering that would be impossible to achieve with a single painting.
The frame tells the same story as well. Once painted a sleek and uniform green, it was later reworked, repainted, and carefully sanded down. This created a weathered surface in which time has not become damage, but character.
The blue dahlia symbolizes inner strength, fidelity to oneself, and the beauty that arises when something does not have to be perfect. It is precisely the visible traces of change that give this work character, strength, and authenticity. Anneke Winterman, the creator of this remarkable work, is engaged in creating artworks every day. In 2005, she completed her studies in Autonomous Visual Arts at the Utrecht University of the Arts. She has participated in group exhibitions, held solo exhibitions in her own region, and several of her artworks have been included in various publications.
