Mother Turtle

She Rises from the Earth Itself

Mother Turtle is unlike anything else in the Terrane in Color collection. Set against a deep, rich algae green background, this original mixed media painting goes beyond paint — physical pieces of terrain are attached directly to the canvas, giving the piece a texture and presence you can feel as much as see.

From this living, layered surface, she emerges: an abstract lime green form, ancient and unhurried, her head vivid and unmistakable. Mother Turtle doesn't ask for your attention — she commands it with quiet, primal authority. She is the earth, the water, the slow wisdom of something that has been here long before us.

Hang her somewhere she can breathe, and she will anchor every room she inhabits.
