Viola Purpurea

Sale price$600.00

7.5 x 10.5 inches 

Note from the Artist:
"This Mountain Violet (aka Viola purpurea) was found in the path on the hillside below the studio. Knowing that it was likely to become trod upon, I immortalized it in this print. These cheerful, but tiny blooms come out as early as February and in an abundant rain year, I find some still blooming as late as June! They appear as bright spots of color in the low grass of our Mediterranean climate winter and each year I look for them as harbingers of Springtime. Though this lovely flower is found throughout the West, I consider it special if only for that reason alone. This is the 4th Herbarium Series print."

Viola Purpurea - by artist Monique Wales – Turner Fine Art
Viola Purpurea Sale price$600.00

“As an artist who deeply appreciates detail, I always strive for simplicity. I find that I often land somewhere in between, hopefully capturing the essence of the scene, flower, or creature at the heart of the work. I enjoy drilling down into my subjects and learning from each experience, and my goal is to pass on that same sense of discovery and wonder through every piece I create.”
