"Abstraction 072123" Original Hand Drawn Pastel on Paper 8Hx10Wx1.5D by Erin McGrath Rieke
ABOUT
Created in a moment of surrender to nature’s quiet embrace, this abstract pastel on archival paper reflects both the raw energy of the woods and the emotional undercurrents that propel my body of work. Arriving with resistance, I let the golden sunlight streaming through the windows soften my edges, allowing the untouched stillness of the forest to guide my hand. Each stroke became a release—an untamed expression of freedom drawn from the earth beneath me and the crisp air filling my lungs. This piece, like the woods themselves, holds space for reflection, transformation, and the unspoken language of emotion translated through color and form.
