By Margie Mersky

A charming matted and framed 9" x 12" colored pencil piece, the print is #2 in her collection. This artwork beautifully captures the essence of spring with delicate dogwood blossoms in full bloom, set against the rustic backdrop of an old shed. The artist's skillful use of colored pencils brings out the soft hues of the blossoms, their petals almost glowing with the gentle touch of sunlight. The shed, with its weathered wood and timeworn charm, stands as a silent witness to the changing seasons, adding a sense of history and nostalgia to the scene. Mersky's attention to detail and her ability to evoke emotion through her art make "Villa Rica" a captivating piece that transports you to a tranquil spring day, where the air is filled with the sweet scent of dogwood flowers and the promise of renewal.
