  • Silver Coronet

    I painted this coronet to capture the compact elegance of a brass instrument people often hear but rarely study up close. I focused on the curve and shine without turning it into a sterile object study.

    I drew the instrument by hand and painted it in watercolor. The original watercolor is available. It measures 10″ x 10″ on 300 lb Arches hot press paper and includes a certificate of authenticity. Prints ship unframed.
