Pablo Picasso Flower Paintings are well known from his Blue Period but he also had a Rose Period beforehand, which I much prefer. Boats Paintings It was at the end of this period (almost immediately prior to the blue period) that he painted his early little known work ‘Fleurs’. Flower was the first Picasso work bought by the Tate Gallery via funding from art lovers to help museums and galleries buy important works of art. People Paintings Picasso later founded and had a big influence on Cubism. Cedric Morris painted many, many flowers and has had several new flowers named in his honor including Irises, roses and geraniums. His was knighted and became Sir Cedric and he lived into his 90s. Building Paintings My favorite painting by Cedric is his 'Iris Seedlings' which is in the TATE Gallery in London. Prints of all these works plus smaller prints of original large paintings can be obtained from the main Galleries throughout the world. Oil Paintings for sale Some artist websites will also offer the service. Others famous artists who tried their hand at flower painting are Andy Warhol, Jean-Baptiste Robie, Georgia O'Keeffe, Edouard Manet, Pierre-Joseph Redoute and Henri Matisseto mention but a few.
