Bloodroot Story; 2018; 26 3/4 x 20 3/8 inches; colored pencils, graphite pencils and pastels. Bloodroot's growth stages are depicted from emergence through to the development of seeds in a collage of squares and rectangles in this composition. Colors are soft, leaves are illustrated blowing and wind is represented along with sun rays typical of a spring day. A bottom visual footnote illustrates seedpods exploding with ants dispersing seeds.
