Monochromatic Peony, "Simply Pure"

Monochromatic Peony, "Simply Pure"

"Simply Pure" is complete! This monochromatic peony has been a beautiful journey in exploring the subtleties of working with a limited palette.

Capturing the soft, delicate petals of a white peony using only shades of gray and white required careful attention to the subtlest value changes. The result is something I find both peaceful and powerful.

This piece reminds me that sometimes less is more in art.
