Description
Chimney Rock Island has long been a famous landmark at Lake Martin - one of the largest man-made lakes in the United States located in Alabama. Its name came from a tall rock resembling a chimney that protrudes from the top of the island. Chimney Rock is adjacent to Acapulco Rock Island at the Tallapoosa River Gorge. Lake Martin spans 44,000 acres of water with over 750 miles of wooded shoreline. Chimney Rock has been a popular attraction since the lake was built. Its unique rock structure is beautiful, especially silhouetted against the dark greenery of the surrounding natural vegetation. This painting highlights the rough texture of the rock and lush depth of the trees and plants by the use of an impasto style of painting which makes use of a palette knife, applying the various colors in layers. As the paint dries and more is applied, an almost three-dimensional Impressionist effect is created, giving attention to the physicality of the rocks and the natural give and take of the terrain that features foliage between and around the rock formation. The result is a beautiful Impressionist rendition of Chimney Rock.
