Ellen Brooks

Garden Slice
1987

A textured, pointillist-style image depicting an abstract landscape with trees reflected in water. The top of the image features a blue sky with hints of tree silhouettes, transitioning into vibrant red and green foliage, followed by dark tones suggesting a shadowy foreground. Below, these colors are mirrored in a rippled reflection, creating an impressionistic view of a serene, natural scene.
