Description
This is a signed and numbered Limited Edition Print (only 50 will ever be made) from an original drawing using pastel and my own hand made charcoal from willow salvaged from the riverside near my studio in Christmas Valley. ‘Roots’ was created on a grey toned archival artist paper, measuring 24 x 18″.
About the artwork:
This is an original drawing created en plein air, outside. I set up an easel on a spot overlooking the South Upper Truckee River near our home in Christmas Valley. The way the river winds its way through the forest is fascinating, I love that curvy shape. There was still snow on the ground, as it was early spring. The light crisscrossing the river seemed to call and respond, back and forth like singers. There’s music everywhere, if you listen.
