More flowers because I nearly forgot to post again.
To define is to limit. (2/3)
Current sample sheets and a couple pics of the liquid i've been using as watercolor, all extracted from purple iris or common violet in slightly different ways, and pH altered to give different colors due to anthocyanins (which i have been reading a bunch about and they ended up being a lot more complex than expected, and deserve their own text-heavy post, this is merely a pretty pictures post to prove i'm alive)
Subterranean Violet - Iris Study in Acrylic
An intimate study of floral anatomy, capturing the dense architectural veins of an Iris blossom.
This piece balances rich gradients of violet, magenta, and deep purple acrylic washes on paper, contained by heavy, organic ink linework that maps the delicate petals.
A celebration of botanical complexity and the hypnotic weight of the color purple.
