Los Angeles photographer Brian Parillo combines photography and paint to result in contemporary florals that bring out the flowers' strength rather than focus on their delicate nature or fragility. Parillo's work is bold, with an emphasis on form and light. An orange dahlia hovers above a flow of water; the petals of a hibiscus are dipped into the white paint of its background; a creamy dahlia stretches out at its peak.
