Tree & Full Moon

A spare, meditative work — a single tree set against a full moon, rendered in pen on paper with the kind of quiet economy that takes real confidence to commit to. Rohlfing, an Ohio-based artist whose tonalist-leaning work has circulated quietly through regional markets, understood that minimalism isn't about what you leave out so much as what you trust to carry the weight. Here, the piece does exactly that.
Signed by the artist, this is an original drawing — not a print, not an edition — and carries the intimacy that comes with that. Minor undulations to the sheet and light debris beneath glazing consistent with age, in its original frame.
