Fern in Green Relief

A single fern frond rises against a broad white field, rendered in dense green pigment that feels both botanical and abstract. The central stem is slender and upright, while the leaflets spread in a slightly irregular fan, their edges broken into lace-like gaps and splatters that suggest imprinting, drag, and pressure rather than careful drawing. The generous negative space gives the form a quiet monumentality, and the textured surface lets the piece hover between specimen study and pared-back contemporary abstraction.
