This variety of rose grows in the woods where we live. They bloom in July in the montane and when they’ve ripend they produce a crimson hip, plump and shiney.

Wild roses in the autumn move from the pink and green of spring and summer to the crimson an yellow leaves of fall. I painted this with leftover paint from a larger work in order not to waste the leftover pigments. The image of the leaves, stems and surrounding ground litter was made by removing paint tith a rubber sculpting tool.
