History of Loch Raven Reservoir: Originally built in 1881 as a dam and water tunnel to channel water to Lake Montebello and Lake Clifton, a new dam, creating a modern large reservoir lake, was constructed in 1914 in efforts to increase the municipal water supply, submerging the cotton mill town of Warren. Location: Baltimore County, Maryland Water volume: 23 billion US gallons (0.087 km3) Primary inflows: Big Gunpowder Falls river Surface area: 3.75 sq mi (9.7 km2) As a lover of “The Liberal Arts and Sciences,” I am fascinated and inspired by the work originated by the Dutch Masters of the Golden Era. Specifically, their usage of rich tints, hues, and textures. With my grassroots as a Fine Arts painter and now a photographer and an Actor, I draw on my experiences from my art when creating artwork. The usage of textures allows me to add volume to my work and expand my imagination. In this image, I wanted to illustrate and share the breathtaking view of the Echo System as depicted in certain areas of the reservoir. I added my signature texture technique too add volume and give the photographic image an artsy feel. I additionally used a combination of complementary washed nearly to black colors to soften the mood. The Scene is very special to me as I normally visit to observe bask in its beauty and photograph it. Although the reservoir appears alone and yet not lonely but peaceful. My most solemn moments are spent here when studying my lines, photographing or just admiring, watching and enjoying the scenery.
