Susan Manchester
Garden Views #4, Fiddlehead Fern with Dragonfly

2014

About the Item

Susan Manchester’s drawings of feathers and flora are meditations on the ephemeral nature of life, and they reflect the artist’s fascination with beauty in all its strangeness. Manchester has dedicated herself to the close observation of natural phenomenon, and her works on paper help to direct our attention to a contemplative place while living in our high-speed world. Manchester’s strong affinity with Renaissance drawing and her love of printmaking borne from classical Italian art studies, combined with the drawing skills that she has refined over decades, are in full display in these meticulously detailed graphite, silverpoint, and Conté crayon works. This work depicts a fiddlehead fern on a green background. And it is framed in a museum quality wood using all archival materials with an outer dimension of 33.25 x 24.25 inches From Andra Norris Gallery in California.
