"Ripples of Green Dreams" is a captivating 16 x 20-inch acrylic painting that vividly captures the serene beauty of nature. It features two elegant lake loons gliding effortlessly across a body of water. The loons, with their striking black heads and intricately patterned white and black bodies, provide a compelling contrast against the vibrant green hues of the water. White highlights are used to depict light reflections and ripples, creating an impression of subtle movement that breathes life into the scene.
The meticulous brush strokes and detailed textures imbue the painting with a sense of calm and tranquility. The shades of green are rich and inviting, drawing the viewer into the peaceful ambiance of the loons' habitat. This work was inspired by the loons seen on Maiden Lake, capturing their grace and the beauty of their natural environment. A unique aspect of this creation is the reference to a photograph by the artist's cousin, Peter Brooks, which served as a foundation for the artwork, adding a personal touch to the piece.
