With this collection, titled Gilded, I’ve focused on capturing 15 prairie scenes that literally brings the golden hues of the prairies into your home. Using 24 karat gold leaf, I’ve highlighted the way light gets strongest right before it dips beneath the horizon or how it peeks around the edges of clouds so brightly it’s difficult to stare at. I strive to always evolve my art practice and adding this luscious material to my canvas wasn’t easy, but I’m thrilled with the results.
