Cobalt September!

Here is a large new painting for my shop,
"Cobalt September".
Saturated with aqua, sapphire blue and lime this large
 watercolor has been painstakingly embellished
 with gold leaf.
My abstracts are a multi-step process
At once both modern and complex,
like masterpieces of antiquity 
the gold leaf lends a timeless air to the painting.
The watercolor image changes depending on the time of day and the light.
At some angles the gold is barely discernible
at other times the gold dances and flickers.
