Four Seasons
Four Seasons A Found Frames Set A thrift store find (four for a dollar) of small rustic but somewhat baroque frames were asking for content. I was thinking about colonial Mexican retablos. What evolved were four allegorical representations of the seasons. Flora [Spring] is a flower face woman. She has a floral glyph in the corner. Fear Glas [Summer] is a version of the traditional Green Man, with a leafy visage. His glyph is a gold butterfly. Autumna [Fall] is a leaf of the seasonal change. She is accompanied by a copper sweet gum glyph. Boreas [Winter] is the frosty Old Man Winter. His glyph is a silver snowflake. The small, roughly postcard size paintings are acrylic on illustration board.
