riverbank II
20" x 25" acrylic on canvasLazing under the shade of some riverbank trees, i was taken by how harmoniously everything blended together - live and dead vegetation, shadow and light, breeze and gurgling water - creating a sense of timelessness.
The French countryside conveys a quality of softness that I haven't experienced in any other country I've visited.
I felt that playing with an abstracted version of pointillism - utilizing multi-layered larger dabs of color - would best express that soft feel.
