Bejeweled Bittersweet: Gold, Turquoise, Lapis

From the artist's "American Bittersweet" series, this surface design exploits the bittersweet vine's curling, twisting branch and twig structure to create an ornate filigree matrix studded with clusters of autumn berries. In nature, these red, orange, and yellow berries contrast starkly with the vine's gray-black bark; in this image, color editing produced turquoise and blue hues that transform berries into semi-precious stone beads and gild the vine's wiry tendrils with gold...as if Mother Nature were a fine jeweler ornamenting the earthly wilderness with her arts and crafts. Image aspect ratio = 2 x 3 (12" x 18" @ 300 dpi)
