Here's three digital paintings of a local small park called Hane's park shortly after a big snowfall. I love the quality the color shapes take on with the inky water and the bluish snow clumps contrasting and breaking everything up like floating negative space. The snow pushes these images more abstract and compresses the visual space in wonderful ways. I've been experimenting with the color of water and reflections that turn the surface into color patterns like intricate stained glass. Again, this process exposes some very different ways of seeing the natural world. Individual things become melded into bigger gestures and randomized patters and what used to be unified surfaces now become puzzle pieces of tone and saturated line. Comic book artists understand much of this because of the nature of their craft but these images dissemble the shapes with nature's randomness rather than human stylization.
