A petite white ranunculus — a single stem, a single leaf — rising from a small bowl of water. Behind it, a golden-red field; across the top, a line of obscure red script in olde French. Taken from a found book of love letters outside Paris a few years ago
In the Victorian language of flowers, ranunculus means charm and attractiveness; the white ones, grace and refinement. Which pairs nicely with a print that literally radiates.
Luminous White Ranunculus is printed in archival pigment ink on vellum, then gilded on the reverse with Dutch gold leaf through a series of steps in my Rio Rancho, New Mexico studio. The gold behind the image gives the print a glow that shifts with the light in the room.
Sizes & prices (unframed): 11×14 in · $165 · 16×20 in · $350 · 20×24 in · $450 — unframed, so you choose the frame that suits your room. Each size is an edition of 20 — when they're gone, they're gone.
