Lakeside Community Canvas Oil Painting

Lakeside Community is a hand finished canvas oil painting. At first glance this canvas art appears to be a coastal or lakeside community captured from the water, but it takes on more than that with its abstract treatment of the water. It veers from the traditional by changing the reflection in the water, so that it is less representational and more surreal. Bird’s wings become streaks in the water, and buildings become geometric forms, creating a hybrid of the two disciplines.
