About this work

This painting is actually forty small paper napkins scattered across a white wall. Each napkin has a tiny ink or pencil drawing—mostly flowers, some leaves, and a few abstract shapes. The colors are soft, mostly blues, greens, and browns, with some faded spots where the paper looks worn. The napkins aren’t all the same size or shape, and some are crumpled or folded. It’s like someone took everyday objects and turned them into a quiet, scattered art piece. If you like this, check out Jim Hodges for more work like this.
