Description

Located just south of Goldsboro, NC is Cliffs of the Neuse State Park. We visited the park in late Spring, this visit was preceded by about seven straight days of rain. Alot of the hiking trails were flooded, but it created some cool pictures that would not exist under normal conditions.

When I began painting these pictures this was my first go around with acryl gouache on watercolor paper. I use acryl gouache in nearly all of my paintings, but usually as more of an accent layer over traditional heavy body acrylics. Previous paintings have always been done on canvas or boards, cold press watercolor paper provided me an interesting new dynamic. Unlike canvas, the paper allows for softer strokes and better detail. Of course some of the impasto and sgrafiito techniques that I like to use are not possible on this surface, but overall I like this surface as I can do paintings a bit quicker. They also look nice under glass in a metal silver frame.
