This painting is an abstracted landscape inspired by the kind of satellite imagery seen on the Google Earth and NASA websites. In the process of developing a commissioned painting of New Orleans for a client I did a lot of research about the area and became interested in just where and how the Mississippi River made its way to the Gulf of Mexico. Hurricane Katrina had done its worst by that time and the news was full of information concerning the changing nature of the wetlands in the Delta region and that imagery became a painting.
