Mangrove Triptych

In this piece, I took three photos of mangroves and juxtaposed them to emphasize the unique shapes and spaces of this fascinating tree. I printed the original photos onto archival drawing paper, then cut them into sections and mounted the pieces, with some elevated to interpret the dynamics of the space and create a bas relief effect. After mounting, I drew into the piece with colored pencil, graphite, and charcoal, to emphasize shape, form, and shadow.
