Michael Banks 26x37 Framed Yellow Flowers in White Vase WP6314

This vibrant still-life composition by Alabama outsider artist Michael Banks offers a fresh departure from his figurative and face-based works while retaining the bold texture and expressive energy that define his style. A bouquet of oversized sunflowers bursts from a white vessel, surrounded by fluttering white birds that animate the composition with movement and life.

Created on what appears to be reclaimed tar paper, the work combines acrylic paint, incised line work, and heavily textured surfaces. The warm orange background amplifies the bright yellow blooms, while the white vase provides a striking visual anchor. Scratched lines, layered paint, and visible textures celebrate the history of the salvaged material, transforming an ordinary surface into a lively contemporary folk-art painting.

Part floral still life, part imaginative narrative, this piece demonstrates Banks' remarkable ability to find beauty in reclaimed materials while creating artwork that is both joyful and visually compelling.

The framed piece is 26" wide and 37" long and 1.5" deep. It is under glass.
