Small Works from Nature #2

This collection is the second in a series of paintings completed en plein air in my garden. It reflects my love for the small and insignificant things that we often pass by in our haste to get somewhere else. Like objects from nature, when seen individually, they have a unique charm, but collected together, they reflect something much bigger than themselves. The works are mixed media: watercolor, gouache, pastel and gouache on paper. Like my garden, they represent the chaos of life that when resolved through quiet observation, reveals order and beauty. The final works will be shipped matted.
