Leaf series by Peter Raos
Leaf Series paperweights
by Peter Raos
Leaves from the Pohutakawa tree lie casually on the floor
of the studio. Peter captures the essence of this simplicity in layers of glass. Look closely; examine the complexity of contrast and detail. Sometimes red, grey, green, vermilion, umber. Peer into the piece and observe the intense working of each individual leaf . New details emerge, lucid texture of stalks, veins, swirling and movement across the earth.
