Artist Karl Maughan, a connoisseur of bounteous cultivated gardens, paints a botanical world that we, the viewer, simply lose ourselves in. With rounded bushes, winding paths and vivid iridescent colour, these spaces are gleaming and luscious. Maughan paints with oil paint using a technique called “alla prima” or “wet on wet”. Colour mixing takes place on the canvas rather than the palette. One colour cuts into rather than blends into another, creating a wonderful sense of sparkle and depth.

We are delighted to be able to offer one of Karl Maughan's most iconic works as an affordable open edition art print. For those of us that are not in the position to spend tens of thousands on an original Karl Maughan this really is the next best thing. We have been reliably informed that it is unlikely that this art print will be available for much longer so if you do want to have an affordable Karl Maughan artwork in your home please purchase it while you still can!

Born in 1964, Maughan graduated with a Master of Fine Arts from Elam Art School, University of Auckland in 1987. Both Maughan’s parents were keen gardeners. At times, his father designed gardens for a living and Maughan found he was often sharing his parents love of all things botanical. His passion for the garden motif within his artwork began in art school, where he painted his mother’s garden. Maughan says; “What I found with flowers and gardens generally is that you get a tableau of things you can play around with and ideas that you can move around. It's kind of gardening but without all the effort.”In 1994, Maughan moved to London, where he married novelist Emily Perkins and raised their family of three children until 1997 when they came back to New Zealand. He currently lives in Wellington. Maughan has work in international and national collections including, Te Papa Tongarewa NZ, and The Charles Saatchi collection, London, United Kingdom.
