This series of watercolor paintings attempts to disperse the image into transparency and is a response to three-dimensional, solid-form, representing the cycle of nature that is impermanent. The choices of materials and techniques are important considerations in completing my paintings. In some works, the space is divided into quadrants of views through the manipulation of photographs and then painted from my viewing the manipulated photographs. Other paintings were completed based on my first-hand experience while others are based on descriptions of landscapes in classic literature – sight unseen.
