"Delicate Columbine" an Original Watercolor Painting
"Delicate Columbine" is a study in graceful, sculptural petals and interesting contrast. These unique flowers often turn their faces toward the ground and it isn't until you move closer and change your perspective, that you can fully appreciate their beauty.
The delicate details and pastel color of these blooms will bring quiet peace and soft color to your space.
An original watercolor on cotton paper, this painting is part of Into the Garden, a collection of botanical artwork inspired by my favorite place in all of Manhattan, Heather Garden in Fort Tryon Park.
About the Collection
At the height of the pandemic in New York City, fear and sorrow hung heavy. We shuttered ourselves inside our one bedroom apartment, anxious and uncertain. I thought often of Heather Garden, still out there, busily preparing for spring. The crocus bravely poking through the soil and cherry blossom buds getting ready to burst into full bloom.
It was comforting to know that no matter what was afflicting us humans, the rest of nature continued onward, as planned, and on schedule despite our being able to see it. Into the Garden came from a desire to escape the indoors and ride out the storm in my safe space, my healing place. Each of these paintings is a love letter to the garden that I so desperately wanted to visit during that time.
My wish for this body of work is to share the joyful heart of my favorite garden and fill your space with a sense of renewal and hope for better times ahead. By bringing the beauty and color of the outdoors inside, we make room for tranquility; a moment to breathe deeply and feel restored.
