Luminous marsh

Luminous Marsh  5 x 7 

The inspiration for this new painting was a bright spring moon rising above the salt marshes in Ipswich on a super clear night. Deep greens and blues—ebbing and flowing between the land and the sea. 5x7", oil on canvas panel.

By a world of marsh that 

borders a world of sea. 

Sinuous southward and sinuous 

northward the shimmering band 

Of the sand-beach fastens the fringe 

of the marsh to the folds of the land.

—Sydney Lanier, 1876
