Sheltering Crown – Original Ink Drawing on Hand-Cast Cement Tiles

Drawn across twenty-four hand-cast cement tiles, this original ink piece captures the slow, sheltering reach of a broad-canopied tree. Its gentle bend and spread are mapped meticulously in fineliner, each tile contributing to the wider picture like pages in a quiet story. Subtle variations in tile tone and texture echo shifting light and shade, bringing sculptural depth to the work.

The piece was made slowly, intuitively—layered mark by mark—until the tree settled in. Though still, it holds presence. It’s made to hang like a fragment of landscape, architectural in form, organic in feel.
