The Grouping

The Grouping presents a quiet study of stones partially submerged in water, where translucent layers and soft shadows reveal their smooth, rounded forms. Shades of blue deepen the sense of stillness, while subtle gradients trace the gentle curves and surfaces of overlapping pebbles. At the center, a distinct oblong stone draws attention with abstract blue and green markings, providing a thoughtful contrast to the otherwise naturalistic depiction. Fine lines and delicate highlights suggest ripples and reflections, capturing the ephemeral interaction between solid matter and flowing water. This composition invites reflection on the passage of time and the stories embedded in simple, often overlooked elements of nature. 30” x 22.5”
