Imagination Beyond the Sea

Acrylic Paint | Not For Sale

Ever since I was a young boy, I enjoyed painting landscapes inspired by those of Monet's Water Lily series, but after I lost my central vision in late 2015, it became difficult to distinguish one color from another. Therefore, I decided to never attempt to paint another landscape again. However, I couldn't resist the urge to express myself at an OSD Staff Development Day. I agreed to try my best to paint a landscape again with some help. Team work is important in making a short video, but why can't it be important in making a landscape? With some help from Joanna Boval, I was able to include details in my painting like a waterfall, grass, palm trees, and flowers. Of course, I would've been able to paint the big picture without any assistance, but with some help, I was able to include small details allowing my imagination to come to life.
