"Everglades", 24x20 Original acrylic on canvas by contemporary realistic artist Cheri Clearwater. Framed in a 2.5" Cream white wood frame.  Total dimensions are 26.5"x 22.5"  Deep, dark blues and thalo greens blend into a line of purple, then into light blue as you move up the painting from the depth of water that is the Everglades. A strip of land sits atop the expanse of water that holds saw grasses and a few trees. Water lilies float in front of the grassland. The large expanse of water houses the reflection of the clouds above. Lighter than the orange and pink hued clouds in the sky, the slowly rising sun hits oranges on the clouds and grasses while leaving the cool darks yet unlit with a deep dark line separating real grass from reflection. A cluster of cool, blue-green water lilies fills the space just at the bottom of the dark, murky water. a colorful and serene landscape.
