This captivating piece, titled "WPR 30," offers viewers an intriguing glimpse into the natural beauty and organic textures inspired by the serene landscapes of Ward Pound Ridge Reservation in Westchester, NY. Measuring 11x14 inches, this artwork presents a unique composition crafted through a solar print collage on bristol paper, an innovative technique that marries photography with traditional art forms.

The artwork features torn paper showcasing a harmonious palette of green and yellow hues reminiscent of the vibrant foliage found in the reservation. Its irregular, textured surface draws the eye, creating an impression of depth and complexity. The torn edges reveal striking white areas, adding to the piece's organic and abstract nature. The color gradients and textures evoke an almost tactile quality, inviting viewers to explore the layers within.

What sets this work apart is its creation process, which involves solar prints derived from photographs captured during explorative journeys through the picturesque landscapes of Ward Pound Ridge. This fusion of digital and traditional media results in an artwork that not only captures the essence of its inspiration but also offers a fresh perspective on the interaction between nature and artistic expression.

Available framed in a natural wood frame using archival materials and UV protective glazing.
