Effloresce, 2011, 8”W x 10”H, Mixed Media on Wood Panel.

A new hyper-collage image created for the beginning of Springtime. Even though it’s still cold here in Minnesota this piece gives me hope that the snow will finally go away and be replaced by warmer weather. I essentially wanted to try doing a predominantly white background with a rainbow of colors set against it.

effloresce, v.i. 1. to begin to blossom. 2. to blossom out; flower.

Thanks for taking a look!
