local ochre, ink, watercolor on paper
 
This painting was created as part of the "Stone & Bloom" Collection, an exploration of the interplay between ancient and ephemeral wisdom. The collection builds upon ancient pigments with hues reminiscent of fleeting blooms, clouds, and fields in an attempt to capture the essence of these familiar yet transient moments in a contemporary abstract form.
 
This piece was conceived on a spring day just outside of Middlebury, VT, when the dandelions came into full bloom. The composition mixes traditional watercolors with locally sourced ochre. Additional contrast was added using drops of black ink. 
 
Please consider measurements carefully before purchase and take the time to view colors on different monitors, as colors may appear different on different devices. I have done my best to represent all artworks accurately. This piece was painted on hot press heavyweight watercolor paper, so it has a smooth finish. It includes a 12x16 crisp white matted frame with glass that reflects light beautifully.
