Red Stone Study Duo
These pieces are sold as a duo.
These stone studies are part of a larger body of work titled “How Do You Hold a Memory,” painted during the spring and summer of 2022.
I live with neurological disease, and I care for a parent with dementia. As humans, we build routines, skills, and habits through repetition; it is these same patterns that degrade as dementia progresses. As I ruminated on the convergence of memory and identity, my attention turned toward the tradition of cairns, standing stones, and other intentional rock formations. Memory is both fleeting and resilient; what will be remembered when only the stones remain? To highlight this contradiction of my weird human experience, I painted steadfast stones with ethereal watercolors, representing solid minerals with transparent pools of pigment.

Each of these studies is painted with artisan grade, handmade watercolors on cotton paper; collage elements are cut from handprinted paper cut from scraps used for other collections. Read more about that here.
These pieces are 7x10 inches, and matted to fit in an 11x14-inch frame. Sold individually, these pieces would be $65 each. As a duo, they are offered as a slight discount of $120 total.
