Now Showing! At the Juried Exhibit Women's Work now at the David L. Dickirson Fine Art Gallery in Tamarack.
Along the rocky bank of the creek, a leaning tree invites the park passerby to pause for a few pages of afternoon reading. As her eyes scan the lines of the page, her scattered thoughts soon settle into an engaged reverie deep into the past of the main character. It’s as though she were reading of her own entwined roots exposed by years of seasonally passing waters.
This 11” x 17” original, "Back to Her Roots", is drawn with archival quality, permanent India ink on acid-free Strathmore Bristol board for lasting impressions. The drawing is mounted in an acid-free, white matt with a black liner that sets off the crisp clarity of the black ink drawing. The matted artwork is sheathed in a crystal clear protective envelope for protection when handling. The matted artwork is ready to mount into any 16” x 20” frame.
"Back to Her Roots" is one of a series of original artworks by Pat Cross on the desirability and viability of living in this small town designed by Eleanor Roosevelt and how that plays out into our modern day.
