Intrusion

Rocks inspire much of my work..  Normally I paint images of rocks and water.  In this painting I wanted to capture the strength of rocks, their flow and beauty, and the power that I feel when I am in touch with our wonderous earth.  I let the rocks speak for themselves, calling to us with their curves, colors, intrusions. 

This painting is an experiment in mixed media, with watercolor laid down first, followed by pastels and gauche for accents and depth.
