Transparent Watercolor on Paper
Painting Dimensions: 29x21”
Framed Dimensions: 40x32x1"

Winner of the Central Virginia Watercolor Society 2016 Juror's Choice Award in
Charlottesville, Virginia.

FROM THE ARTIST: The paintings in the Trains Series are large format, abstracted watercolor and acrylic paintings that focus on shapes, patterns, textures, lines and colors illuminated when railroad cars are viewed in strong sunlight. The paintings give a sense of the large scale of their subject while examining detailed views of smaller bits and pieces that are of interest to the artist. Inevitable rusting and wearing that results from life on the tracks is incorporated rather than ignored.
