This original painting
is in a Private Collection.
"Beside the
Singing River" was inspired by a place so beautiful that I was inspired to write a
poem.
The place was so remote
that the only sounds I could hear were the birds and the singing of the river.
A few years ago, while
traveling in the same area, I attempted to find it again, but was unable to do so.
I used watercolor to
create this painting. Before I began to paint, I collaged several different kinds of rice
papers and mulberry paper onto my watercolor paper. The wonderful textures you see in the
painting come from these papers. |
