Naranjas sevillanas (Seville Oranges)
2025 • ACRYLIC, PASTEL, CHARCOAL • 12 in diam
This piece features a cold blue and white background, representing the wintry days we experience for months in Rochester. But in the foreground, inspired by a photo of bitter oranges in Sevilla, Spain, there are bursts of warmer hues. Though our winter may be long, our summer is gloriously mild. And sometimes all you need is a small reminder like these orange and green marks to remember spring and summer are on their way—in the form of seeds that are already buried beneath the ice and snow.
