Waterlilies Burning, part 2
2013, Acrylic on Canvas, Mixed Media, 20 1/2″ x 10 1/2″
The inspiration for this series was Monet's "Waterlilies". The second in a series of three, I enjoyed making a reductive version of the initial work. I like that I was able to convey the same voice throughout all three pieces while each one still works on its own, independent of the others.
