In The Rose, leaves blowing in the wind from diagonal directions intersect and merge to form the image of a rose, which is suspended at an angle. The Rose is a fusion of the soft smudged leaves on the interior of the flower, which interlace with the more ornate sharper edged intersecting leaves. It is a play on the two textures. The flower head itself acts as a magnetic force that pulls the sharper edged ornate leaves into it's center, causing the panoramic view to seem multidimensional. In this piece, I play with the idea of the still life image of the flower being juxtaposed with the crossing of the leaves and the illusion of motion contrasting it's windless leafy bulb.
A fitting drawing for a beautiful and talented woman!
