Pink lotus blossoms with delicate, layered petals unfold across deep green leaves rendered with fine linear detail, their soft forms set against a misty pale blue-grey background that suggests water or air. The composition captures the flowers at various stages of bloom, with an intimate focus on the intricate veining of the foliage and the gentle gradations of color that give the work a serene, contemplative quality characteristic of traditional Japanese botanical study. Crafted from durable canvas-like poly-poplin and made to order, double-stitched with a cotton webbing strap. The everyday haul, from groceries to the beach, carrying an independent artist's work.
