This painted cut-paper collage, housed in a shadow box, combines a layered and atmospheric composition that blends botanical, celestial, and architectural imagery. At the center right of the artwork are two large marigold flowers, rendered with intricate, hand-cut layers of painted paper that give the petals a lifelike texture and dimensionality. Surrounding them are several smaller orange buds, emerging from a textured green foliage. Behind the floral elements is a softly illuminated gothic window. Light streams through this window in angled beams, painted in translucent washes of blue and white. Scattered throughout the lower half of the composition is an array of radiating star shapes, cut from gold, orange, and green-toned paper. These celestial forms hover among the leaves, blurring the line between sky and earth.
