“Golden Treasures Nine” is a lyrical sugar lift and aquatint, reflecting the artist’s long interest in botanyy and the use of plants, in this case, witch hazel, in traditional herbal medicine. Printed in deep viridian green and silver ink on 100% cotton rag paper. Nancy Azara is interested in time in relation to memory, personal history and her own mortality. In this suite of aquatints, she uses the leaf as a recurring theme; as a metaphor, a self portrait, a “stand in ” for herself.12
