Field Sketches

Made on-site of a variety of parks and natural areas, these works are first sketched in ink and then painted using a watercolor field kit. Song lyrics are then interwoven as hidden messages throughout the piece. Finally, a unique frame is constructed for the painting using found objects, such as sea glass, driftwood, and rocks, from the depicted site.
