Gunks Trees (gouache on paper canvas, 5.5x8.5 inches, 2025) is from a hike I went on with dear friends. The Gunks is a mountain range in upstate New York that at any time of year is filled with secret little wondrous corners to explore. I was rooted to the ground with this wash of green around me and felt completely at peace. This watery gouache depiction of that slice of the forest gave it a dreamy quality that I loved.
