The following images were made from video stills taken at Mystic Hot Springs. I focused on the crystalized calcium deposits left in mineral wakes beneath flowing water that cools and evaporates upon coming in contact with oxygen as it surfaces from deep within the earth's core and flows downhill.

These "textures" are the backgrounds upon which I painted this series.
