Halcyon Days
Although this didn't turn out the way I intended (not unusual), it still makes me think of halcyon days. Turbulent, yet calming.
2023 Acrylic on unstretched raw canvas 23" x 17"
What I love about water – ocean, lake, river, waterfall – is how it is always changing. Plus ça change, plus c’est la même. Change is inevitable. The challenge is how to capture the depth, the movement. In my abstract, acrylic paintings, water sometimes looks like water, but it also sometimes looks like space or sky. Honestly, it’s not something I always control. Some paintings just happen.
