El Matador
El Matador
El Matador is a striking mixed media composition that balances structure and spontaneity through layered abstraction and geometric form. Built within a framed, horizontal format, the piece unfolds as a series of intersecting shapes, textures, and visual fragments from the original print.
Circular and rectangular forms anchor the composition, outlined in bold, expressive linework that gives the piece a graphic, architectural quality. Within these shapes, softened textures, muted tones, and embedded imagery emerge—suggesting fleeting moments, memories, and fragments of past life.
Cool teals and soft blues are offset by warm neutrals, aged creams, and subtle peach tones. Drips, washes, and layered surfaces of jesmonite shards introduce movement and depth, allowing the work to feel both constructed and organic.
Part of the Surface Memories collection, El Matador explores the tension between control and erosion—where structure meets time, and memory becomes fragmented yet preserved
Overpainted onto an old board, the work reveals the matador's legs beneath—a deliberate layering that speaks to the tension between concealment and revelation.

Care Instructions
Find A Vase
Find a suitable clean vase, fill with fresh water and the flower food provided then add your flowers making sure all of the leaves are removed that are below the waterline and enjoy.
Remember to clean your vase, this can be done with a splash of lemon juice or vinegar for sparking results.
Trim Your Stems
Remove the lower clear packaging over a sink (leave the top of your flowers wrapped if you prefer) keeping your flowers tied as they have been expertly arranged for you by our floral designers. Cut 3-5cm off the ends of your stems at a diagonal.
Find The Right Home
Flowers are just like us, they don't like to be too hot or too cold. Keep them off windowsills, away from direct sunlight, drafts and away from radiators.
Flowers and fruit aren’t always best friends so keep them away from your bananas and apples as they can give off gasses that flowers don’t like.
Please take care to display your flowers by not placing them on surfaces that may mark easily. Use a protective mat if necessary.
Change The Water
Flowers love clean water so remember to change the water and add new flower food every 2-3 days. Flowers get thirsty, so check your stems are always below the waterline. Certain flowers will last longer than others so remove older looking flowers as this will ensure that the other stems will keep on blooming.
Caring For Your Arrangement
If your flowers are made in floral foam within a hatbox, ceramic pot, vase or similar please check the water level and top up daily or as required.
Important Note
Some flowers and plants can be harmful if consumed, lilies in particular can be harmful to cats. Care should also be taken to keep all flowers, plants and foliage out of the reach of children and animals. Please take care to display your flowers by not placing them on surfaces that may mark easily. Use a protective mat if necessary.
