Dusty Rose
2020
Limited edition archival print on watercolor paper
22 x 28 in.
(Sold)
The arrival of Covid-19, morphing and frightening, resulted in my world becoming smaller, slower, more isolated. The cancellations of long planned gallery and museum shows and sales sapped any energy. It also, slowly, provided unexpected restoration.
The quiet brought examination, stepping back from high adrenaline activity to observation and meditation. Nature provided a daily focus, my gardens producing tomatoes leading to creative cooking and freezing—and taking pleasure in the flower cycles blooming and fading around me. Paying attention.
Photographing my flowers on an old light box became my toy box. Nature provided solace and grounding, life in natural rhythms.
