A fascinating article in the New York Times this week chronicled the longevity of the spacecraft Juno as it orbits Jupiter. The very captivating images that NASA has collected of the atmosphere and storms feel much like the paintings I create.
I’m inspired by the large macro patterns on our own planet; rivers, storms, and crop systems. Jupiter will be a new addition.
My inspiration also goes the opposite way, taking a very micro view of elements and patterns in nature. The above painting “Two Cracks of Light” is an example of a micro view of the movement of water.
This painting was in the juried show “Our Rivers and Lakes” in Gross Pointe, Michigan where I was honored to receive second place.
