Lake Michigan

Lake Michigan

Watercolor on canvas board

Reminiscent of the Pagan belief in water nymphs and spirits that were attached to bodies of water, Lake Michigan imagines a woman who encapsulates the essence of Lake Michigan. The background she lies on is made of the dominant colors and reflections of the lake.

While the lake’s landscape itself is divided into two abstract, Rothko-esque rectangles, symbolic of disjointed looks and feelings, she is the divinity that ties otherwise entropic shapes together.
