I’ve made two trips to Wyoming during the Summer and remember how the landscape varied in different areas — golden rolling hills, lush forests, rolling rivers, majestic mountains. While most of my work is abstract, this one is a more representative landscape that I painted specifically for this beaded bloom because I thought it could represent of the sun, but also birds and western imagery. While it’s not Native American, I felt the colors of the beads reflected a Native American sensitivity that can be seen throughout the Western United States.
