About Gleaning along the Seine
In creating this piece, I've harmonized textures and colors to evoke nostalgia and depth. The collage materials, together with ink and staining, play on the paper, creating an abstract narrative. Engaging with this artwork suffuses your space with a vintage essence, stirring imagination with its contemplative energy.My hands wove the collage elements, creating a textural play with ink blots and stains that tell a story. It's an abstract embrace of vintage aesthetics that speaks of time’s touch on memories. It will bring a contemplative energy to your space, a piece that invites the viewer to explore the layers of emotion and history threaded within its fibers.
