Chrysanthemum Cyanotype The pink and purple colors

The pink and purple colors flash by as I bike by the blooming hydrangea bushes

Poured acrylic painting Encroaching Lava (Little Gem 22) reminds me of the slow-moving lava you might see as the magma on top cools and the thermal layer beneath struggles to continue flowing

Creating this series of twelve stripe-paintings was a pure delight

The next step was incorporating opaque acrylics and collage papers

and blue "rocket" popsicles

Framed image 15" x 13" Chrysanthemum is a softly purple tinted mixed media flower painting. Created with collage paper, transfers, acrylic, watercolors, and India ink.
