In the Greenhouse

Medium: Acrylic Paint

Statement: Greenhouses have always fascinated me — although it's contained by four walls, all the rich verdant hues and leaves of every shape and size shine brilliantly in its own pocket of sunshine. It’s as if the translucent walls melt into watercolors of the outside reality when the warm sunshine paints everything in a golden glow. Bright blues and greens are highlighted with tones of yellow that warm the canvas. I wanted to immortalize the vibrance of this summer afternoon in my own little jar of afternoon sun with confident strokes of acrylic paint.
