My artwork whether its watercolor, printmaking, oils or acrylics, are inspired by places I have visited and interacted with. My acrylic painting “Broken Tree Peninsula” is based on a photo I took while kayaking. While seeking shade I came across This little broken tree in the cove. I was impressed by the resilience and strength it showed after losing the larger more dominate trunk. With the use of acrylics and an up-cycled canvas with already beautiful underlying textures and colors, I hope to show that feeling of strength to the viewer by presenting the subject as a dominating force.
