This series becan after a visit to Niagara Falls last summer. From high, over the Falls, I looked down to the water's edge. There rocks were thrown on shore from the force of the passing water, scum and foam formed around the edge, algae floated in the still areas. I just had to capture in paint, what I could not touch in reality. This carried over to a visit to the Maine coast, where large boulders were thrown on the beach.
