Seven Years of River

The other day I went into a box of "work photos"- before I ever had a digital camera. Quite interesting, haven't looked for a time. I found a photo of the first river I ever painted- back of photo stamped March '04- in the style of the "Storm Series". I think it's revealing to view the first, a middle, the most recent River ('11) to see how I progressed, changed, with seven years of study. I really loosened up and became so expressive. It still is an endless subject.
