(b)rambles
(b)rambles
22"x30" watercolor on paper; framed The wonderful world of blackberry brambles in the fall. This watercolor painting invites you to climb in, crawl around and see the delicious details of the rambling blackberry bush. Depth, color and detail in this painting entertain the eye and fulfill the senses. Painting this was like a meditation; I would get lost in the tiny details for hours. It was a very long meditation. $1800 CAD Chain of Fools

Higher Love II
Higher Love II
15"x22" watercolor on paper; unframed There was a pile of old pansies that had been pulled from their container at the end of the season, and left in a pile beside the house. I laid the plants out on the snow, and began to take pictures. The delicate stems and leaves, the flowers that had held on to their color despite being torn from their comfy beds, the still-green leaves that spoke of summers to come - all of these things just screamed to be painted. I have done many watercolor paintings of these pansies in all of their beautiful organic shapes and colors, and never fail to appreciate the beauty of the natural world, even when - perhaps, especially when - it is past its prime. $250 CAD |
