Colorblock Totem

Description

Colorblock Totem arranges hand-drawn geometric forms into a playful vertical composition, outlined in bold black against a warm neutral ground. Gray, red, pink, teal, mustard, and olive shapes create a lively rhythm with a relaxed, sketch-like finish. Its graphic palette brings a distinctive accent to a wall or shelf.

Artist

Based in Edinburgh, I work in watercolor and charcoal, layering fluid forms, textured marks, and vivid color. From quiet landscapes and wildlife to abstract studies, I explore movement, atmosphere, and the calm found in changing forms.
