bowl brimming with freshly gathered blackberries, each berry rendered with Hanlon’s trademark precision. Their deep purples and near‑black tones glisten under soft light, creating a sense of immediacy and ripeness.
The bowl, understated in colour and form, provides a gentle counterbalance to the intensity of the fruit. Hanlon sets the arrangement against a muted background, allowing the viewer’s eye to settle on the textures and natural variations within the berries themselves. Subtle shadows and careful lighting give the composition a calm, three‑dimensional presence.
Presented by Red Rag Gallery, the work exemplifies Hanlon’s ability to elevate simple subjects into quietly luxurious studies of colour, light, and natural beauty. It’s a piece that invites slow looking and rewards attention with its honesty and craftsmanship.
