This piece is the epitome of the GRASS-STAINED + SUMMER-RAINS collection. It's directly inspired by the Mary Oliver poem "Invitation".
Up close, this piece is an invitation to, as Mary Oliver said, "linger for just a little while out of your busy, and very important day." There's a depth in the details where the grass stained puddles dried. And where the colors bled into one another. The movement feels like a valley of grass and flowers you could just sit and stare at for hours.
While I normally stretch my canvases, this piece I couldn't bear to frame and lose any part of the painting because of needing to wrap some of it around stretcher bars. The subtle waving of the fabric feels like the soft clothes got caught in a summer rain.
The original features: grass stains, grass pulp wash, acrylic, soft pastels, graphite, inks, threads and puddles on raw, unstretched canvas.
Mug is a healthy 15oz. Trust me when I say it is the size you want when settling into a conversation over coffee or tea. It's big enough to hold pencils or brushes.
Tote bags are double sided durable canvas. Come in 3 sizes that can cover you for groceries, quick trips out or beach days.
Pillows are super soft and art is printed edge to edge. Choose stuffed or unstuffed, zipper or no zipper. All machine washable.
Stickers are great adds to gift wrapping, water bottles, laptops or anywhere you collect your stickers. I personally love them on my studio toolboxes and work tables.
About GRASS-STAINED+SUMMER-RAINS collection: The poet Mary Oliver is a big source of inspiration for me. She experienced nature the same way I do–as permission to pause and notice. Her poem “The Invitation” struck me and spurred me to create this mini-collection. This collection is an intentional shift to a minimal approach. I left large swaths of raw canvas untouched, and I stripped down my use of natural elements to see what happened. I infused unusual and normally unseen natural elements such as grass stains and puddles of water mixed with paints and inks. Letting the water take the colors where it wanted naturally and surprise me as it dried. The results are a collection full of organic shapes and movements. This collection is of small moments that serve as an invitation as Mary Oliver’s poem says, “to spend time, to linger on your very busy and important day”.
