Johnson Grass Egg Tempera 20 X 16



Johnson Grass, Egg Tempera on Panel, 20 x 16

is a continuation of my series of botanical paintings. In this painting I try to show the vast, open Kansas prairie and sky juxtaposed with the enormous variety of botanical detail surrounding a small gully with water.


The flowers at the base of the Johnson Grass are Lead Plant.


We can find incredible bio-diversity in even a small piece of Kansas prairie - if we take the time to look.
