Artwork of the week: Dandelion drying by Greg Patch

3 stages of drying Dandelion leaf and root photo-sketched. At three separate drying stages Patch moved the plant material to air the process, preventing mold and to prevent the plant material from sticking to the wood surface. Each reset becomes an art work and photographed as lightness and movement in relation to each other…

making marks
with the nature of our environment,
where we/I are presently,

while working,
with Nature,

this 1st photo of a section of the installation project "labels" I'm working on is @3' x 7'.
made up from the 35 individual recycled cardboard box tops with labels and tapes that I've posted over the past month or so. each panel is a beeswax/natural pigment painting and tied together with hemp to create the whole, for now. being very flexible it will be placed in different spaces. here it lays on a slightly warped chicken wire fence... it is growing...

  • am considering/mental editing a proposal to exhibit locally
  • Imagine it on display at your Summer party or wedding as an art rental or wall display to have as remembrance of the day! contact me for more information and arrangements!...
  • or buy the piece...

Sag and Jupiter in Leo. Chiron and Neptune are in the Water of Pisces and NNode in Libra and Venus in Gemini with the Air. get fresh Air and Water!...

the relationship of light and dark exists as a balanced dance in space and time...
