Abstract Rainy Skyline

We're now on at least the third weekend in a row defined by at least one day of torrential rain here in Maryland, so I decided to paint a scene inspired by the lousy weather. This painting is more abstract than most of my works, and it depicts a fictional city skyline on a soggy night. Misty clouds drift near the tallest buildings, streetlights blaze away, and everything has a watery feeling.

Moonlit Swamp

Beneath a pair of full moons on a far off plane of existence, light glimmers across the shallow pools and squishy mud of a vast swamp. Spreading reeds and ancient trees grow from the mire in a constant struggle between growth and decay. Fireflies dance around the tree roots and grasses, oblivious to the eerie gloom. Part of my MTG: basic lands series.
