This work represents Simmons' bold reimagining of the Provençal landscape, creating original visual vocabulary rather than imitating Post-Impressionist masters.

Simmons honors the golden fields and dramatic cypress trees of Southern France while establishing distinctly contemporary aesthetic. Her artistic choices reveal unique way of processing natural beauty, the simplified forms and rhythmic patterns, the swirling trees becoming almost calligraphic, the wheat fields transforming into waves of abstracted texture.

This piece speaks to Simmons' artistic philosophy: using new tools not to copy the past, but to create new ways of seeing familiar subjects. The Provence landscape has been painted by Van Gogh, Cézanne, and countless others, Simmons' contribution is finding fresh visual language for this well-trodden subject.

The daytime, clearer palette creates distance from obvious Post-Impressionist reference while maintaining strong visual appeal. The stylized but not derivative approach demonstrates Simmons' independent artistic voice, she has studied historical precedent but is creating her own aesthetic vocabulary.

The sunflowers, cypress, and Provence setting provide traditional subject matter, but Simmons' treatment is contemporary geometric harmony rather than botanical detail, sculptural clouds rather than atmospheric haze. This balance between familiar subject and fresh approach positions the work successfully as contemporary landscape art. Inquire for availability and acquisition details. Please see "How to Buy"
