Painted Desert #2, Patricia Patrick, 2024, mixed media, 36 x 12 in. / 91.44 x 30.48 cm.

This second in a series shows a summer desert landscape using shards of color, from greys and dark orange to the whisper in green of low growth plants to the illusions of a beautiful crystal-clear blue sky. Shards of mirror reflect the world around the silence of the arid space and time.
