Piece description from the artist
This watercolor forms part of a series of paintings which I've entitled 'Where I Live.' The scenes depict some of my favorite areas in Eden Prairie, Minnesota ~ usually around Staring Lake and Purgatory Creek, which flows in and out of this lake. Each scene contain a not-so-subtle lie, meant only to humor the viewer. Otherwise, this scene of Staring Lake is quite genuine. Only the pavilion in the background has been replaced with an updated version.
Richard Green holds a Bachelor's degree in music and art history from the University of Minnesota, and a commercial art certificate from The Hennepin County Technical College. The 35mm camera he received for his seventh birthday was probably the catalyst which would eventually lead to a career in art direction and graphic design. He is a self-taught watercolor artist and oftentimes combines a variety of mediums, including a computer to achieve the effects he desires.
