Here's another artistic rendition of my writing project on Columbus. I'm just getting started, but I
really enjoyed using my acrylic paints for the first time today. I love the texture of the paint -- something you don't get with watercolor (the sky and ocean were done with watercolors -- I used acrylic just for the boat):
And the piece has evolved into this:
The writing below says "Thus began a time of great sorry for the Taino of the Caribbean," which is a sentence I draw directly from a section of the book I am writing. The Time of Great Sorrow begins really with Columbus second voyage to the (now) Americas in 1493.
