Inspired by the forms in nature, I’ve long appreciated the sinuous forms of magnolia petals and the luminous way light shimmers through their velvety surface. This painting I’ve been incubating for a long time, and am so glad to finally have painted it.

The painting is large (22″x30″) and done in pastel. You can see the entire work above and close up photos below.

I’m so grateful for magnolias in spring!
