Botanical Layers | Expressive Brushstrokes | Flowing Movement
This piece reminds me of looking down into a gently flowing stream, where leaves and delicate ferns seem to float across the water's surface. I love the contrast between the intricate fern impressions and the larger maple and oak shaped leaves scattered throughout the composition.
I experimented with hand coating the watercolor paper to create beautiful, sweeping brushstrokes that move across the artwork like ripples in water. Soft shades of sage green, muted teal, and pale blue are layered with deeper indigo, while the delicate white botanical silhouettes bring a lovely sense of lightness to the piece.
What I especially love about this composition is how the expressive brushstrokes interact with the fine details of the ferns. The combination creates a beautiful balance of movement and stillness, capturing the peaceful feeling of nature in its own quiet rhythm.
This cyanotype measures 22 x 30 inches and is created on high-quality watercolor paper. Each piece is handmade by me and completely one-of-a-kind. It comes unframed, allowing you to choose the perfect frame for your space.
My recommendation for framing this piece is a shadowbox frame in white or natural wood, with a 2- to 3-inch mat. I suggest floating the artwork, meaning it’s mounted slightly above the mat board, fully showcasing its beautiful deckled edges and adding depth.
I always recommend working with your local framer when possible. If you're short on time or prefer ordering online, a great alternative is Simply Framed, where you'll find these framing options. For more detailed framing tips, please check out my framing guide.
This cyanotype artwork ships unframed and will be carefully packaged for safe delivery. Shipping costs $25 and typically takes 10 to 15 business days. As soon as your order is placed, I'll personally email you to confirm the shipping timeline and keep you updated every step of the way.
