Iris imagery has inspired the artist from her early years in New England.
The Red Fan with Obi incorporates the rich textural images of a sumptuous silk
obi contrasted with the delicacy of the first white ruffled harbinger of spring.
A crimson red fan provides the backdrop for this eastern inspired still life.
The original painting of Red Fan with Obi won First Place in the Watercolor Division of the Los Gatos Art Association's 2000 Open Juried Show.
