Original artwork description:
After a base coat of acrylic paint on the canvas all other marks were made with either stems or roots of horsetail (Equisetum) or a feather. It was painted outside; the Equisetum was from the nearby pond and the feather was on the lawn. The result is a painting quite unlike any other I have done.
Equisetums are the only living relatives of plants that were a dominant feature of the late Paleozoic age, which included the Carboniferous period when many of our coal deposits were formed.
The construction is canvas stretched over a wooden frame which is not visible. It is ready to hang.
