Paulownia Tableau

A tableau is a picturesque grouping of persons or objects to create a striking or artistic scene. Historically, these scenes were drawn from history, mythology or religious text. I have captured the natural forms of dried paulownia leaves and recast them as colorful elements in this paulownia tableau. The leaves are supported by paulownia branches and wood bits. This composition is meant to stimulate your imagination and provide a closer look at the natural world.
