Fine Art Print on Watercolor Paper
15x15
 
“Senescence” refers to the natural breakdown of cells as they age. This process is a natural part of the life cycle and is responsible for the beautiful colors that appear in leaves each fall. This composition was created entirely using buckthorn ink, and highlights the range of color that can be achieved with natural inks, while also embracing the ephemerality of fugitive natural botanical pigments. While the composition has been treated with UV protectors, the color of the piece is expected to shift over time, mirroring the shift in color of the natural world which inspired the piece’s aesthetic.
 
This painting is part of the Fall ‘24 ‘Sacred Circle’ series. The paintings in this series were inspired by the Spirit in Nature paths in Ripton, Vermont during peak fall foliage. They contain pigments foraged during that same fall season, including sacred circle charcoal, goldenrod, buckthorn berry, wild grape, and orange ochre rock. 
 
This archival fine art print captures the same beautiful color of the original pigments but will not change over time.
 
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 fine art print on paper will look best when displayed in a frame. I am now able to offer framed or unframed options, depending on your needs. Simply select your preference at checkout.
