Midsummer Morning Joan-Hayes (Pictured: Purple and Blue)

(Pictured: Purple and Blue)

Like many of Barry’s etchings

while also giving them a strong presence as they stand-alone

These sculptural post earrings combine modernism with a sense of humor

Granda continued to explore this theme for much of the decade following (with the Line Paintings) and continues to use the vertical format to yet a completely different effect today

Midsummer Morning Joan-Hayes (Pictured: Purple and Blue)Midsummer Morning is an original etching by Jo Barry. Wildflowers bloom in a grassy meadow. Like many of Barrys etchings, this work was inspired by the New Forest in England, which was once a royal hunting ground for William the Conquerer. Her labor intensive etchings, which sometimes take up to six months to complete, often feature pastoral scenes of flowers and animals.
