Wetland Seep
Oil on canvas, unframed.
12” X 16” X 7/8”
This picturesque painting beautifully captures the essence of a tranquil wetland seep during the rejuvenating spring season. A delicate palette of soft greens and blues, expertly balanced with deep, evocative shadows, evoke a sense of serene beauty and harmony. Viewing this artwork, one is enveloped in a feeling of tranquility and stillness, inviting contemplation and serenity.
I painted this while I was an artist-in-residence at Whiterock Conservancy in Coon Rapids, Iowa. The wetland seeps are a special feature at Whiterock.
According to the WRC, “side hill seeps” hang on the side of a flood plain or in isolated ravines. Comprising only eight total acres at WRC (out of 5500), the seeps support the highest diversity of native species of any plant community on the property. Water seeping out of sandstone outcrops continually saturate soils at the base of the bluffs, forming this unique wetland community.
