Ask the Beautiful Question. Oil and cold wax blue-green tones are played against warm hues including gold tones and reds. Painted with oils and cold wax to create a texture that has a ‘tactile’ quality, the layers share a visual interplay between the thin glaze of colors layered one over the other. This creates a surface that is visually textured while almost smooth. The title was inspired by an interview with poet David Whyte by Kristta Tippit. #marshland #earthtones #abstract #californiacoast
