"Winter Birch and Maple" - Painting on Raw Silk

This hand‑painted raw silk artwork captures the stark, architectural lines of winter tree branches set against a clear, crisp sky. The composition highlights the quiet structure of the season, focusing on contrast, form, and the stillness of cold air.

Painted with permanent silk paints on raw silk with natural fringed edges, the piece is mounted on a 1.5‑inch gallery‑wrapped canvas using acrylic medium. This finish protects the artwork from moisture and dust and arrives ready to hang. The dimensions are 12 x 12 inches.

Artist Carol Sullivan’s work is shaped by a lifetime spent around boats, coastal travel, and the shifting moods of nature, which she interprets through sea, sky, flora, and fauna. Her silk‑dye process ranges from loose and impressionistic to controlled and detailed, with constant experimentation keeping her work fresh and evolving. A graduate of the Maryland Institute College of Art, she has developed unique textile techniques—including gyotaku fish printing—and her fabric art has been featured in galleries in Maryland, Maine, and the Bahamas with an international following.
