Flowers in art [LCSH]

Some of the white of the paper shows in the background, and the rest of the paper is an abstract backdrop of watercolor "blooms" in a sunny yellow, various shades of blue, and pale green. There are spatters of dark blue, yellow, and green paint across both the subject and the background. The paper is somewhat torn or peeling in a few places on the white milkweed, possibly because masking fluid was used there. Underlying pencil sketch is visible in places. The paper is medium weight, slightly translucent, and probably cold-pressed. ]]>

Nude Landscape I (bottom, left corner) and signed her name (as J. Gillett) in the bottom, right-hand corner. There are several strips of invisible, acetate tape along the left edge of the painting, as well as tape along the bottom and across each corner except the top left. There is some slight discoloration of the paper itself, which is obvious in places that were left unpainted. The paper was clearly removed from a spiral bound pad, which was bound at the top; the tabs from the spiral binding are largely still attached. The paper is somewhat crinkled in a few places, as well and a small chunk is missing from the top left corner. The paper is medium-lightweight with a medium grain and is portrait-orientation, taller than it is wide.]]>
