View all Seed Pods

Portrait format watercolour of an oval shaped pod dangling from the goldleaf border as if held there. The delicate papery pod is split down the middle to reveal the numerous seeds within. There is a hint of dark clouds beyond and behind the pod becoming lighter towards the base of the picture.

From the artist
This pod is for me a metaphor for female fertility visually and by correspondence.
