'Hanging Basket No.1'
Fine Art Print on Watercolor Paper
Image size: 8x8
Paper size: 10x10
 
This painting is an homage to the humble petunia, a garden staple and an icon of the Wood’s farmstand in early summer. The flower was painted from memory, with strong brushwork suggesting a quick, gestural impression of the plant. The series signature pigment made from a black petunia can be found in the center of the blossom.
 
This artwork is part of the July 2024 ‘To the Woods’ collection. The series is filled with the buzzing humming energy of full summer. This energy surrounded me each time I sat down to paint. For this series I worked almost exclusively outdoors, in the flower fields around the Wood’s Market Garden farmstand as well as in some of my favorite fields near Middlebury, Vermont. Bees often landed on my canvas looking for pollen amongst the colors. I hope these paintings remind you of these full bustling days of summer, even when they have given way to the stillness of quieter seasons.
 
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.
