Fern, 5.75 x 5.75, Original watercolor, Mounted on a Reclaimed Campaign sign, Eco-Friendly and Ready to Hang
Ferns take me deep into the woods, where you can smell the loam, hear the birds and feel the cool moist air. This tiny treasure is perfect for your nightstand, shelf or any hidden nook.
The background is painted wet into wet to allow the colors to flow into each other. This interesting yet soft focus background allows the main subject to shine.
Green Apatite Genuine, from the Primatek collection by Daniel Smith, is one of my favorite greens. This specialty pigment is actually made from grinding the semi precious stones. The result is a super granulating pigment that falls apart in unexpected ways in a wet wash. It also mixes very nicely with a wide range of other pigments. Using this paint adds a magic that can't be duplicated – not even if you try.
This is an original watercolor painting created using professional materials. It will never be reproduced as a print; you will be buying a one-of-a-kind painting.
This painting is mounted on a double layer of corrugated plastic (mostly likely a reclaimed campaign yard sign). Artist grade materials are used to adhere and protect the painting. The edges are covered with pH neutral tape for a clean finish. The plastic is cut slightly smaller than the painting, so that it is not visible from the front. It is wired and ready to hang.
The result is a clean contemporary look that is extremely light weight. It can hang many places a traditional piece cannot, or it is sturdy enough to sit on a shelf. You can hang it as it is, or you may wish to have it framed; in which case, you do not need glass.
