Atmospheric Landscape: Swamp Painting

I work to depict the ethereal, atmospheric quality of nature. To capture the fluidity of nature, my paint is applied across the canvas with a piece of plexiglass in one direction. Each color is applied one at a time at different stages of the drying process to create texture and depth. Through this process, I am unable to completely control how the colors blend or how the textures form. I find that I must relinquish some control of the painting to fate, circumstance and chaos, much like the way nature is formed itself.
