Water of Life #4

"Water of Life #4"

Number 4 in the Water of Life Series was inspired by a trip to Alberta Falls in Colorado. Do you know the feeling of mountain air and the intoxicating fragrance of clean, pure
splashing water? I chose oil paints for this painting so that I could add texture to the scene. My style is rather loose and I love brush strokes to show. It makes the painting more intriguing; more like it was not planned so that your eyes have fun.

“Water of Life #5"

“Water of Life #5 is a commission for a friend.It is sold. It is 24 x 36 on cradle board. Finished on all 2 in. deep sides requiring no frame. I love painting splashing, flowing refreshing water. It goes deep down and climbs high on the rocks. Not unlike life where cold desperate darkness tries to hide the light, but the light seeps in through the broken cracks and crusty crevices, peeking out brightly, bringing bold hope.
