About the Item
This delicate silver botanical drawing is made with graphite on painted black paper. The exploration of ephemerality, and the fragility of dandelions, their texture and movement, are the focus of this series by Margot Glass. The exquisite beauty of the humble dandelions often considered to be mundane or undesirable is discovered and elevated through close examination and exquisite drawing by the artist. Price shown is the unframed price. Framed in a light natural wood frame with archival materials. 12 x 9 inches (unframed), 14 x 11 inches (framed).
Glass draws with 14 karat gold and graphite (appearing silver) not only for the delicacy of line the metal point provides, but also for the allure of using a semiprecious and precious metals as a drawing material. Working on a dark ground allows the gleam and luster and delicate reflective silver and gold properties of the metallic medium to present as high tones against the black ground.
Glass is interested in the tradition of using nature as idealized ornament in art and design while seeking to observe and represent these plants as accurately as possible in all their irregularity and imperfection. The metallic lines enhance the decorative qualities of the filigree patterns formed by the seed heads and leaf veining. Her compositions are tightly cropped to bring the subject as close to the edge of the picture plane as possible.
Margot Glass’s work been exhibited widely in the United States and internationally. Glass’s education includes studies in the Brown/RISD Exchange Program, Brown University and Rhode Island School of Design, Providence, RI, she earned a BA with Honors from Brown University. Brown then studied (textile design/pattern) at the Fashion Institute of Technology, New York, NY. The artist lives and works in Massachusetts.
