Dogwood I

A commanding vertical canvas, Dogwood I renders the spare poetry of flowering branches in acrylic, its silvered surface catching light with the quiet authority of antique mercury glass. At over six feet in height, the composition commands a wall the way a well-placed architectural element commands a room — with presence rather than insistence. The silver leaf finish lends an luminous, atmospheric depth that shifts subtly across the day, ensuring the work reads differently at noon than it does by candlelight.
