Crystallized by Michelle Hinebrook

Good morning collectors! It's Sara on this second day of the week, with our second stunning edition from Michelle Hinebrook. I had the pleasure of first introducing Michelle's work in August when we released the buoyant, seductive and saturated Sugarcoat. Today I'm here to tell you about its cool counterpart, Crystallized.

Like a pair of sisters, these prints play off eachother's strengths. Both are elegant, layered and complex, but where Sugarcoat is warm, bubbly and summery, Crystallized evokes colder climes with its crisp, faceted planes and blue-hued sparkling palette. It's just the thing to ward off any early-onset winter doldrums—ruby red jewels offer up their own warmth as they dissolve into tiny, triangular rainbows.

All that shimmers, glitters, appears and disappears in light was Michelle's source for Crystallized; she writes: "This work was inspired by examining patterns of spectral light that either reflect or refract into the geometric facets of a form. The forms in this painting reference diamonds, crystals, gemstones, and celestial bodies, star clusters."

Created from these sublime inspirations, Michelle's heavenly works are well-traveled on this planet, too. Hopefully all of you who headed south last week saw her work at Scope Miami. If you missed it there, see where else you can take it all in, in person, on Michelle's blog. Jen'll be back tomorrow with two new, finely-feathered editions by a photographer from across the pond. And if you're ordering from or gifting to across that pond, to guarantee Christmas delivery, international orders must be completed tomorrow.
