This painting expresses the theme of being "rooted and grounded" through its use of layered forms, earth-inspired tones, and nature motifs. The combination of geometric shapes and organic elements—such as the leaf-like patterns in green and red—suggests connection to nature and stability. The presence of grid-like patterns and intersecting lines further reinforces the idea of structure and rootedness, as if mapping out an underlying foundation.

The overall collage effect, mixing vibrant and muted colors, evokes a sense of layers built up over time, much like roots establish themselves in the earth before growth above ground is visible. Abstract botanical imagery and the harmonious division of space hint at growth. The subtle inclusion of floral and foliage patterns amid the textured, grounded background strengthens the idea of thriving from a stable base, visually embodying the concept of being "rooted and grounded."

Fresh flowers being a refreshing energy in spring.
This painting explores the lines of nature and the beauty of flowers in a vase, created in layers and interesting brush strokes.
In an attempt to merge florals and abstraction this painting went through many variations.
I wanted the flowers to retain their organic shape, ethereal qualities and the painting to stay true to elements of abstraction like surface quality, texture, lines, marks, collage and mixed media paint.
This version keeps all those qualities intact. Do you agree? 

This painting is currently in the Rockport Art Assoc and Museum show exhibit will be in April 2022 titled "Jacki's Flowers" to honor our beloved Jacki Harrington, that left this earth this past December.
