Salvia
Salvia
“Salvia” is a one-of-a-kind mixed media art piece that began as an oil-based wash painting. This image was painted from a cutting of a plant that grew in the front yard of an old shared home she lived in years ago. This piece is in honor of the plants that offer us many gifts, that nourish us in numerous ways both seen and unseen. This image is transferred onto cotton rag paper stained with Persian black tea, and is mounted to a wood panel using archival glue.
This piece comes with a custom handmade redwood frame made from salvaged fence boards by artist and craftsman Vincent Waring. The work measures 12”H x 12”W x 1.5”D and is protected with glass. The frame is sealed with an organic handmade wood polish created by the artist.
