High Falls

This week the plein air group painted at the property of two artist friends.  Sally and Ken have magnificent views of High Falls.

Keith Thurgood and I were standing out on the rocky riverbed.  The mosquitoes in the bush were horrendous but in the open we had a swarm of dragon flies taking care of them.

There is lots that I like about this painting but I realized when I got home that I have the falls and dam too high and narrow.  The beauty in the dam and falls lies in the width as much as the height.  It is a long concrete wall.

I appreciate how you captured the essence of High Falls, even with some adjustments needed.

    I am an artist who works almost exclusively from life.  Either in front of a sitting model or outside at my easel or better yet sitting on a rock during a canoe trip.
