The first in The Mount Hope Cemetery Collection, Lichen is inspired by the small life that exists on both the stones and trees in the historic cemetery. Many look at cemeteries and see death, but look closely and you will see a kaleidoscope of color and life. This piece is a reminder to look for what thrives among that which has passed. Sometimes, we have to look closely to find it.
The colors of lichen and pine bark merge into a textured study of woodland light. Soft gray-greens, mineral neutrals, and weathered whites suggest the texture of stone, moss, and tree bark. The restrained yet complex palette invites close looking and calm reflection of the life that may be easily overlooked among the cemetery stones.
This posting is for unframed prints only. Prints have a 1 inch bleed to ensure none of the image is covered by frame if not using matting. If you prefer no white edge (image to the edge of the paper), please specify that request.
