"THE SWAMP" [La ciénaga] Painting

Swamps have always been a sort of mysterious places to me due to its particular vegetation, the sunlight filtering through the top branches of woods and the opaqueness of the water where water lilies float embellishing the landscape. A photo selected at random made me pursue this painting for which acrylic was the best option for its versatility. One other challenge was the size, the smallest painting I have ever made with so many details. Painting is protected by several layers of Krylon archival varnish.
