Winter and water are some of my favorite subjects to paint. Water has a spiritual connection which represents cleansing, purity and refreshing one’s soul, while providing a narrative for the landscape. Inspiration for Listen to the Water, came while visiting a familiar woodland creek after a heavy snowfall. Crisp light with strong cool shadows framed the chilling jade-colored water. Careful observation and skill are required in rendering the characteristics of water. This is very important to me and what I desire to express to my viewers and collectors.
