Description

The gate stands open the way it always does, the stone pillars framing a path that leads through a canopy of green toward the building beyond. Pink flowers along the bottom, iron scrollwork, a lamp on each post, the whole entrance doing exactly what a good entrance should, making you want to walk through it. This watercolor canvas print catches it in full summer, the trees dense and vivid, light filtering through in that loose, dappled way that watercolor handles better than almost any other medium. The palette is generous, bright greens and warm sandstone and those pops of pink at the base keeping the whole thing lively without becoming busy. It's a cheerful painting of a genuinely lovely corner of campus, painted with evident affection and a confident brush. The matte canvas finish keeps the colors fresh without letting them tip into oversaturation. Gallery-stretched on a slim 1.25" pine frame and ready to hang out of the box, it's for anyone who has passed through that gate and felt, briefly, that the rest of the day was going to be just fine.
