Yosemite
Yosemite is a 36 x 48 inch torn paper collage from the artist’s Color Schemes series, transforming the landscape of the American West into a rhythmic, almost musical abstraction. Built from layers of hand-torn paper, the composition evokes granite cliffs, towering trees, and canyon walls through flowing vertical forms and vivid color contrasts of orange, red, violet, gold, and cool blue. Black linear pathways weave through the surface like trails, rivers, and natural currents, creating a sense of movement and connection. Rather than depicting the landscape literally, the work captures the emotional grandeur of Yosemite National Park — its awe, silence, and enduring sense of wonder.
