A Collection of 10 Prints

Joan Nelson's *A Collection of 10 Prints* is a suite of lithographs rendered in rich, layered colors on the tactile surface of Rives BFK paper, with select works enhanced by a screenprint varnish that adds depth and luminosity. Nelson's signature dreamlike landscapes and organic forms emerge through the interplay of printed color and translucent gloss, creating a meditative tension between flatness and dimension. The series exemplifies her ability to bridge the intimate and the cosmic, drawing the viewer into quietly mysterious, otherworldly terrain.
