Cherry Eye #1

Watercolor and colored pencil

Arches Hot Press 300gsm paper 9”x12”

First in a series of mixed media images investigating perception and color. A cherry blossom is rendered in naturalistic watercolor. An eye is drawn in fragmented parallel pencil lines describing a kind of analog pixelation, and looms behind the bloom. Each, the eye and flower, are looking, but where? At whom? And, viewer, what about you?
