Description
Water always presents wonderful challenges to an artist-sometimes very complex ones like the roiling sea crashing ashore and sometimes more simple like the water lapping at the shore of an inland waterway on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. For me, painting water begins with a careful study of the variety of shapes and colors present and, more importantly, the repeating pattern these shapes and colors make as they define the waves or the ripples. This study help me to understand "what the water is doing" and what effect the ambient light is having. With this understanding I can lay in the proper colors and shapes in the correct pattern and, voila...water! The lines, shapes and colors in the water, grasses and lily pads in the upper half of the painting provide great contrast and visual interest to this piece.
