Delicate Harvest
A third of the Tribute to Heart's Wanderings series featuring impressions of Tunisian, Mediterranean motifs and symbols expressed through patterns. This pen and watercolor is inspired by our trips to harvest figs soon after sunrise on the Isles of Kerkennah, Tunisia. Both symmetrical and asymmetrical patterns weave throughout made of figs, ironwork, and jewelry pins. The patterns seem to float above the doorway scene where the couffin (basket) holds the fig harvest.
