Over the Rocks


I did this 11 x 14 painting for a class I was participating in on the WetCanvas site where we were doing water. We worked on reflections for a while and then everyone started doing waterfalls. I always found waterfalls difficult to paint, but after reading the tips given by the people in the group, I did two paintings. I was pleased with the way this one came out.

You did good! It actually looks like moving water. We'll have to go hunting for waterfalls to paint on our sketch days.

Where in WC was this class? Good job. I have a waterfall photo I got at the Windwolves reserve. Haven't attempted to do it yet.

Lin - Thanks. I was afraid I was going to overwork it. I'm happy with the way it came out.

Mickey - Thank you. Start thinking of waterfall locations.

Jeanne - This was in the "Learning" section of the Watercolor Forum. It was called "Let's Get Wet!"

I haven't seen it on wc... can't get on and when I do, between the site and my computer it's too slow... I know they're working on it and it will improve... but I digress.... Love the piece!

Helen - Thanks. They shut WetCanvas down yesterday and I can't get on today either. It's a good thing I have so many blogs to check.

Joan, I think you did marvelous with the waterfall. I love every bit of it including the small droplet at the bottom of the fall. Great job.

Ai - Thanks. There was a WetCanvas tutorial on painting water with a lot of great tips.
