Cascade by Jessica Levitt

Cascade is inspired by the many colors and forms of water all around us. It’s a graphic snapshot of just a few of things that water does. It drips down a window pane or cascades down a waterfall. It glistens as morning dew or floats flowers and leaves on it’s surface. It splashes in a puddle or bubbles into the air. I was influenced by Art Nouveau style and saw patterns everywhere, from an elevator door, to the weave of a sweater. The Glacier color way uses icy blues and greys with just hint of pink to create calm, pretty mood. The Pond color way has the more earthy feel of all the many green, lush layers of that environment. After an invigorating hike, I love breathing in the pure, crisp energy in the air from the mist at the bottom of a cascade. I hope this collection captures at least a little of that beauty and clarity. -Jessica Levitt
