About this work

Real cypress leaves, sealed under layers of varnish and acrylic in complementary colors on a wood panel. Two masses meet along a diagonal: a sea of turquoise and cobalt on one side, a wall of red on the other, and a dark seam where they burn into each other.

The leaves give the surface a relief that catches the light differently through the day. One of the earliest works in the studio, and still one of the most physical.
