Image Inspiration:
Lush texture, vibrant color, beeswax & varnish create delicious layers of color. The lyrical lines of the botanicals mimic the lines of the shed horn. A shed horn is a antler that has been naturally shed by the animal. Shed horns are symbols of rejuvenation and vitality, some peoples believe that eating powdered shed horns will endow them with those qualities. I find those qualities in the flowers and leaves I've paired them with. This is part of a series of beautiful antler art that includes one painting in a main color: red, yellow, green and blue. This image has two antlers. Along with the yellow color, this symbolizes the power of the elements -- the sun.
