Grief Scapes: 21 Nov 23, Xix-Xxiv

Watercolor on paper

“‘Grief Scapes’ is a series of watercolors I engage in weekly since the passing of my mother in January 2022. They are sets of 24-32 paintings, each 3'x5', and completed in a single sitting. It is a meditative, stream-of-consciousness practice.”
