Buffalo River painting






We had the opportunity to go back to the Buffalo River this past weekend. It was beautiful; I thought of this painting and decided to post more pictures of it. It is spray paint, enamel, polyurethane, and black oil paint. 3'/4'
I wanted a bright blinding river , large and overwhelming. The spray paint separates when urethane is poured into it. This creates cracks, similar to the landscape of the area. I traced the drips and curves of the layers with black oil paint, giving it depth.
