Garden III

2020

This abstract mixed media painting explores a garden through deep blues and layered greens, anchored by Prussian blue, one of the artist’s favorite colors. Dense passages suggest foliage, shade, and depth, while translucent washes create a sense of air and movement. Textural marks, scraping, and built surfaces echo natural growth and decay. The palette remains restrained, allowing subtle shifts in tone to guide the eye across the surface. Rather than describing a specific place, the work captures the feeling of being within a garden—immersive, quiet, and contemplative—where color and texture stand in for leaves, soil, and light and memory together.
