Diva al Fresco
Part of the Plant Portrait Series. This new series of anthropomorphic plant portraits and vignettes started with the excitement of a new painting technique but has turned into a heightened awareness and love for the variety of exquisite designs and graceful poses found in the plant life all around me. As my dog walks me on our usual path, I feel as though I am seeing my environment with new eyes and am constantly examining and, when I can, snipping new specimens along the way. I hope to impart this newfound sharpened appreciation for nature's beauty to you, the viewer. Diva al Fresco is a fiery performer commanding the audience atop the stage of life with a with an expanse of stylized green mountains as a stunning backdrop. Our Diva expresses the feeling of spacious liberty and freedom.
