Sassafras

Digital art print. Paper: Cold press cotton ragweed textured fine art paper.

the story behind the art: A friend recommended playing with an earth tones palette. I started with earth tones as the base for each layer. I was inspired by a new shade of Essie nail polish I purchased — “Saff-ron the move.”

I fell in love more and more with the piece with each added layer. The bright yellow gold tones and hints of green make me happy! Sassafras is a fun word to say and was the first word that popped into my mind while looking at the finished art piece.

Admittedly, I created Sassafras when I was supposed to be asleep after a long work day. Wasn’t sure how I felt about the piece until I awoke the next morning.
