SELECT high quality reproduction PRINT or framed ORIGINAL! Original painting framed with white border and black frame, ready to hang.

The art print is a high quality reproduction of my original gouache painting, entitled Serpentine, that explores objects collected for study in the beautiful Little Bald Hills in the coastal Del Norte County, northern California. It is one of five paintings that make up my Natural Collection painting series.

The Collection explores the essential alluring qualities of natural objects that compel us to take them from their native setting and incorporate them into our lives. I seek to illustrate how natural objects can become stimulating objects of human desire, as well as show how natural objects can come to symbolically represent our relationship with the places in which the objects were collected

Serpentine depicts the highly patterned and chromatic blue, green, orange, and red of serpentine, a metamorphic rock that forms at the convergence of tectonic plates deep under the Earth's crust. Serpentine is high in Iron and Magnesium and soils derived from serpentine support specially adapted plants that can survive its harsh chemical properties.
