The Alchemist's Dream is a large-scale abstract straw marquetry work on wood panel made with hand-dyed rye straw. A broad field of soft ivory gives way to a meandering band of rich umber and deep walnut brown, creating movement through geometric rhythm. Float framed in maple.
Alchemy is the ancient pursuit of turning base materials, like lead, into gold. To me, this is the essence of my chosen medium, elevating a humble grass into something radiant.
