She Chose the Yellow Table is an exuberant celebration of color, texture, and unapologetic abundance. A mass of hot-pink hydrangeas spills from a chunky blue glass bowl, grounded by the unexpected jolt of a cadmium-yellow tabletop.
Actual hydrangea blossoms and leaves were used as printing tools to create many of the botanical impressions; no plant material remains attached to the painting. Bubble wrap produced the textured pattern within the bowl, while exposed areas of white watercolor ground preserve the lively history of the process.
