[Sybil] specialised in flower studies, depicting her subjects with a boldness, vibrancy and strength that resonates today just as it did more than half a century ago.

The exuberant orange and reds which fill the canvas give rise to a joie de vivre as does the vase which melts into the painterly table top, while the angled secateurs suggest haste between picking and painting the bouquet compared with their more structured compositional role in later works.” Christine France $38,000-48,000 © Reproduced with permission of the Margaret Olley Art Trust
