Gingered Crooked Creek
“Gingered Crooked Creek”, by jennie traill schaeffer (ig: @traillworks)
5” x 7”
Mixed Media (watercolor, water soluble crayon, tea package transfer, absorbent ground)
unmounted, ships in a clear archival sleeve
A transitionary piece between my TeaScapes and Take a Seat, this work explores the Crooked Creek in my neighborhood; a respite with my kids and my dog, when I need access to water, it's a half mile walk. This piece also explores the addition of absorbent ground, which changes the surface of the paper, evening out the image transfer to the surface. Waterways in NC often take a muddy, green tone, quite different than my memories of the deeper, cooler bodies of water of the northeast.
Option to mount on cradled panel is available, but might require extra time in delivery.
