Montbretia, Opus 100, 1999
Glass panel, 11 by 33 inches. Frame, 14 by 35 inches.
Reminiscent of a day in early summer, Montbretia quietly reminds Roger of a time of contemplation during a vacation to the Oregon beaches. The intimate scale and horizontal format provide a perfect canvas for studies of new designs. The Montbretia grow nearly wild along the coasts of Oregon, and their brilliant orange color is a harbinger of fall.
