About The Original Painting

Colorado Rivers Watershed Map: Wonderful Landscape painting
To explore the Colorado Rivers watersheds, I chose to superimpose a topographic relief map over the rivers, highlighting the tallest, snow-capped peaks in white. I then employed gradients of color, transitioning from light to dark, to illustrate the changes in elevation. Lastly, I segmented the map into distinct watersheds, each delineated by a unique bold color.
This painting is part of the Rivers series of paintings where I delve into my fascination with traversing landscapes as a form of self-exploration, akin to embarking on a vision quest or a pilgrimage to a sacred site.
In these paintings, the rivers are portrayed as if they are tuning forks, resonating across the Earth's surface. This collection celebrates our ecological systems as an interconnected entity, serving as a reminder that our physical, psychological, and spiritual selves are intrinsically linked to the natural world.
Materials and Technique:
The composition artfully combines layers of acrylic paint to create precise topographical details. White highlights capture snow-capped peaks, while carefully crafted color gradients illustrate elevation changes. Bold colors delineate distinct watersheds, creating both scientific accuracy and artistic impact.
