A Thousand Tales

About this image: I was fortunate to find this opportunity during an exploration of the eastern shore in Virginia. This is a part of our coastline that has limited access and is made up of countless islands and channels that change with the tides. I was drawn to this image first by sound. I wouldn’t have noticed these expansive schools of small fish rhythmically swimming this remote channel, if not for the sound of the surface exploding with activity as they danced across the surface over and over in a repetitive sequence.

Once I made the print, it made perfect sense to finish coat the piece with a resin finish to capture the feel of the channel water. A simple frame and glass would be another option to capture a similar affect.
