Hidden among the arroyos of Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona, the Banded Rock Rattlesnake is a master of camouflage. This piece mirrors that subtle art of concealment. Formed with clay plaster sourced from the Southwest, the textures evoke the dry gullies and sun-baked stones of desert terrain. Imagine walking through a parched ravine, drawn to something glimmering just beneath the dust. As you approach, the outline of a snake begins to appear, only to reveal itself as a shed, left behind like a ghostly trace. A rare discovery on the desert floor, fleeting yet unforgettable.
18” x 24” Banded Rock Rattlesnake shed, clay plaster, earth pigment on clay board. Handmade walnut frame.
