Magnolia 'Tonia' Pigment

76 x 140 | Handmade Mitsumata paper and pigment

A Magnolia candelabra, magenta buds like musical notes on a score. The intensity of the colour and the alignment of the buds make me think that this is the score for an opera with full depth of emotion. I used quinacridone magenta pigment which has great intensity.

This banner is painted on handmade Mitsumata paper from Japan which is unbleached and has a beautiful organic colour. The paper allows for smooth flowing brushstrokes and has delicate edges along with the watermarks of the paper makers Su or frame. in the finishing process the paper has been uniformly smoothed and wrinkled in a way that makes the piece look antique.

The banner is suspended from a simple batten and clear thread which can be removed on request if an alternative method of display is desired.
