Nova Karmita – Rustic

Nova Karmita – Rustic

$375

Winter may look dull in the garden, but I never look down on those wrinkled petals and the complicated texture they’re made of. Just before I prune all the last roses for better flowering in the summer ahead, I took a wilted rose and decided to freeze its rustic feel onto the paper.

 I previously insisted on using watercolour for my artwork, but then I realised it often ruins my mood while creating because I chase the perfect colour. This time, I decided to limit my drawing to only using black and turns out, the bare strokes even reveal my character more than before.

With this piece, I invite you to seek beauty in anything you might overlook. Winter is the perfect time to appreciate some dull colours and reflects it as our past, and seek emerging leaf buds among the browning flowers, to remind you that next season is near, and so is your growth.
