Pont Aven France

In the Summer of 2009 I spent a month in Pont Aven France in a Study Abroad Program at the Pont Aven School of Contemporary Art. This first group of images are some watercolors based on the interesting shapes of mold that are found on the trees in Pont Aven, particularly up at the Tremalo Chapel. I started to cut the paper so the mold was referencing itself or the tree instead of the standard rectangle that references a window. The smaller group are around 10 x 5 inches while the larger one was from a sheet of 14 x 20 paper.

This second Group is of a book I made researching the Bihan, small two to three inch creatures, who live in the Bois D' Amour in Pont Aven France. It is 12 inches square ( 12 x 24 when opened), Handmade, and consists of 19 Pages of text and images.
