Forest Floor

Mixed media Collage-Asian/handmade papers/acrylics. The paper is coated with gloss medium and then fused together…

“Forest Floor” is an abstract collage that I hope evokes the rich diversity found on a forest floor.
The collage features overlapping layers that represent the complexity of nature, using earthy tones to create a sense of depth and movement. Shapes reminiscent of stones, mushrooms, and the erratic patterns of tree roots are interspersed, inviting viewers to explore the hidden details reminiscent of the underbrush. I hope the piece lends itself to a deeper appreciation for the intricate details that often go unnoticed beneath our feet.
