A vibrant original floral mixed-media painting and collage by Virginia artist Roberta Pruett Beasley, signed RPB and presented in an elegant gold-toned floating frame.
This richly layered contemporary composition celebrates the expressive beauty of flowers through a striking combination of painterly texture, translucent papers, patterned collage, and luminous color.
An exuberant arrangement of magenta, burgundy, coral, violet, golden-yellow, and soft pink blossoms unfolds against a dramatically textured aubergine and bronze-toned background. Delicate white botanical forms and intricate patterned papers introduce contrast and visual rhythm, while a brilliant turquoise passage and ornamental turquoise vase anchor the composition.
Beasley's distinctive combination of expressive brushwork and carefully assembled collage creates an unusually engaging surface, revealing additional details as the viewer approaches.
About the Artist:
Roberta Pruett Beasley is an established Northern Virginia mixed-media artist whose career encompasses painting, printmaking, and collage. Her exhibition history includes the Arlington Arts Center, Arts Club of Washington, and Great Falls Studios.
Beasley's artistic practice emphasizes texture, color, layered surfaces, and the exploration of different materials. This floral composition exemplifies those interests through its combination of gestural painting and decorative paper elements.
The artist's initials, RPB, appear at the lower right. An artist-identification label bearing her full name and contact information is affixed to the reverse.
Collector and Market Context
Beasley's documented exhibition works include Tudor Poppies, a 12 × 12-inch mixed-media floral composition exhibited through Great Falls Studios in 2025, and Southwest Afternoon, a 20 × 20-inch mixed-media work exhibited in 2026. Published prices for these works have not been established.
A separately offered original painting attributed to Beasley has appeared on the secondary market at $795 or best offer; that figure represents an asking price rather than a confirmed sale.
Comparable original mixed-media floral works by other contemporary artists have been offered across a broad retail range, including approximately $700–$1,100 for selected examples, with higher prices for artists with established gallery markets.
Offered at $850, this original presents an appealing opportunity to acquire a signed, individually executed work with documented artist identification, intricate mixed-media construction, and a professionally framed presentation.
Interior Design Appeal
A compelling statement piece for a living room, entryway, bedroom, dining room, or thoughtfully curated gallery wall.
The jewel-toned flowers introduce warmth, vitality, and sophistication, while the turquoise accents provide a refreshing contrast to the rich background. Particularly effective against ivory, warm white, taupe, deep green, or charcoal walls.
Its square format and relatively compact scale make it versatile for transitional, contemporary, maximalist, eclectic, and traditional interiors. The gold-toned floating frame adds a refined finishing touch.
