WATER = Rivers, streams, lakes, clouds, glaciers, a vehicle for delivery of crushed stone

PAPER = Water and vegetable material mixed and crushed flat by stone

STONE = Building blocks of earth, can be crushed to reveal many colors

STONE, delivered by WATER, applied to PAPER makes a watercolor

In my watercolor landscapes, the flow of water, the play of light, atmospheres, and the formation of geological processes are primary influences. The paper I use is 300 lb. "Arches" made in France. The colors I use are often made from mineral pigments, crushed stones, then mixed with water and applied with brushes.
