About This Listing
This listing is for an original watercolor illustration on cold-pressed Arches watercolor paper paired with a matching violet mat (not shown). The illustration has been attached to the mat using archival methods (mulberry paper hinges affixed with wheat starch hinging paste) and the full piece (including the mat) measures approximately 9x12 inches. The portion of the painting shown in frame inside the mat is roughly 7x8.7 inches. The piece can be unmounted from the mat with a gentle application of water (using a wet cloth) to the hinges on the back to reactivate the hinging paste. Signed and labelled by the artist in pencil on the back. This is an unframed original painting, not a print. It is an illustration for Bryana's 100 Word Story "The Blot" and will be shipped with an accompanying printed version of the story. (You can read the full micro-fiction story in the listing photos and below. It also appears in the illustrated zine "The Man Who Could Not Die & Other Stories.")

THE BLOT
There was a Blot on the day. Every time the woman looked in its direction, it said “things are looking worse and worse.” The woman could feel that drooping of things that starts in the throat. She wanted to hold someone tightly, but only the Blot was there. It seemed out of sorts and kept shivering. The woman was thinking about a warm place she knew and birds that would be there. It was a private place she wanted to keep to herself. Also how the blackberries would be just beginning to darken. “Come here” she said, opening her arms.
