The photo that inspired this painting was taken by my father with his film camera in 2001 while we were on vacation in Yosemite National Park.  This was a rushing river and is my earliest memory experiencing the true power of water.  We went white water rafting and the rapids were absolutely terrifying.  But what a rush it was.
 
Drawing from personal experiences and collective memories, I aim to evoke a sense of nostalgia and contemplation in my artwork.  Through layers of transparent watercolor, opaque acrylic/gouache, and subtle scratching applied to the clayboard, I seek to transport viewers to a dreamscape where the boundaries between memory and reality blur.
