Watercolor and gouache on a 20” birch circle. Here, I was inspired by the Tule elk and Bishop pine trees of the Point Reyes area. I used multiple watercolor pours with recycled plastic pressed into it to add texture, then painted over that surface with white to outline details.

green flame

light breathes

energy to energy

in circle language

listen

the sun words I speak

pass between grass to graze

to root to soil and back

know the heart of my nature

eternal burn cycle

perpetual change center

listen

in circle language

energy to energy

breathes light
