Under the Willow Oak: Wild black and white it honors the quiet wisdom

it honors the quiet wisdom carried deep within the woods

but simply holds space through changing seasons

the piece invites reflection on what endures—long after movement settles

Each piece stands alone but sings together

warm and a little wild at the same time

Under the Willow Oak: Wild black and white it honors the quiet wisdomI found a willow oak in Salida. A Southern tree, quietly rooted in Colorado, far from where I expected to find it. These small studies began with cyanotype and collage, then palette knife and heavy body acrylic, finished with gold pen. Each one is a different way of seeing the same leaf, the same tree, the same unexpected belonging. This one is wild. One of a kind, framed in black and gold.
