I’ve been inspired by images of Iceland for years, and I plan to visit someday. Last year I applied for a summer artist residency in Iceland, and was rejected. Never mind, I will keep applying….there are many residencies in Iceland and there is nothing like that landscape to see!
You see what I mean. Pure blue waters, deep green pools, swirling waterfall mists….as well as rocky, icy slopes and the stark gray of bare stone.
In “Iceland I” I hoped to capture the feel of some of these things, as well as layers of lichen and moss in “Iceland II”.
Until I succeed in making the trip — I’ll keep dreaming of Iceland! Have any of you been there?
