"Passages"

This watercolor was inspired by a visit to this beautiful, old place many years ago. These ruins portrayed a metaphor for life. As we age, we move through passages and up steps. Eventually, we step out of life. The brightness on the other side of life obscures the details that we might hope to see, but it invites us to have peace. Perhaps it is simply too brilliant to understand.
 
Details:
The original painting and print reproductions are available. Here is some additional information about each option:
 
Original painting:
The size of the artwork is 8 x 10 inches. I also package my original paintings with a 11" x 14" framing mat so that they are ready to be framed upon arrival. I painted this piece by hand using professional watercolor paints on archival watercolor paper. The artwork is signed with my name and the year that I painted it. 
 
Print reproduction:
My matte prints measure 8 x 10 inches. They are giclée (high-quality inkjet printing) prints on fine art paper. Prints do not come with framing mats. I sign every print by hand with archival-quality ink.
