Water is my comfort zone, I love being near it, I love hearing the sound of the waves, or the feeling of the current on my skin. I grew up in a beach town and the Lake was just a walk down the block, during the summer I went every day I could.
I paint water to escape, I paint with blues to sooth me.

This piece was just for fun, like most in here will be, but I was able to test making videos of my painting process. I had set up a makeshift tripod and recorded a hyper laps of the painting.

Every now and then I like to take a break from what ever I am doing and practice painting water. I will find pictures of the ocean, or lakes, or rivers, and I will spend a couple hours just practicing. The key is to always keep trying.

The Beauty of water is that it is challenging, the nature of it is constantly changing and never consistant. It allows for a challenge to be taken with every brushstroke.
