Watercolor on Emily Dickinson


I was reading Emily Dickinson's poem "Experiment to Me"

Experiment to me
Is every one I meet
If it contain a Kernel?
The Figure of a Nut

Presents upon a Tree
Equally plausibly,
But Meat within, is requisite
To Squirrels, and to Me.

So I did this experimental watercolor piece based on that.
There are some areas where the colors I used to make the
brown are dissolving into their own which I liked a lot.
It was probably because it's bad quality watercolor paint
but I think it worked well for this case.
