The Passage of Time
Nicole Palmer
Isn’t it amazing what can happen with the passage of time? I’m not talking about getting older but getting wiser. Time can afford us the ability to see things from a different perspective than we had, perhaps only days or weeks earlier.
Such is the case with my artwork. In this instance, the Iconic Boathouse actually made its way into Main Street Gallery in Leland. I am in and out of the gallery two or three times a week, and I finally said to myself that the image of the boathouse above water, and its reflection in the water were too similar.
So, I convinced Cece Chatfield, who runs the gallery to let me have it back for 24 hours. Basically, I wanted to put the reflection ‘under water’. I used Kings Blue and medium to thin it down, and then grabbed a window squeegee and went to work. Please let me know if its an improvement in your opinion.
Enjoy!
