“Sleeping Forest” 12x12”, mixed media on birch panel. The finishing touches on this were inspired by my favorite excerpt from “Sleeping in the Forest” by Mary Oliver: “I heard the small kingdoms breathing around me, the insects, and the birds who do their work in the darkness.” This piece was joyfully created by playing with texture color, and intuitive mark making techniques until patterns in nature began to reveal themselves. I kept as much intuitive mark making in tact as possible throughout the journey. #play #explorationmode #cvp2020 #karenhaubart (at San Diego, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbisNclPjsA/?utm_medium=tumblr
