In the artist's Art and Design original print series, Initiation, 2018 by a.muse is a one-of-a-kind semi-abstract work on watercolor paper. The multi-colored monotype was hand-pulled on an etching press by the artist.
Initiation features bright greens inks that evoke new beginnings. The artwork incorporates elements of drawing, with a sketch-like quality to the piece. The composition, containing circular shapes, suggests cycles and continuity. Dark purple shapes add contrast and depth, providing impact and emphasizing the print’s focus on a fresh start.
A 13" x 10.5" monoprint - date, title, and artist's signature on recto (front of work).
