St Peter's Rocks

11" x 14", oil on canvas; $350 USD

There is a beautiful area not far from where I live called St. Peter's Village. It's basically a tiny artist colony nestled in the woods next to a creek. The unique and amazing thing about this area is that there is an enormous concentration of large boulders, both in the hills above the creek and in the creek itself. There is a long stretch of the creek where the water is cascaded through the rocks forming countless tiny waterfalls and tight passages. This is a scene I captured with my camera one afternoon while hiking. I'm planning on doing a series of paintings inspired by this area.
