I know...
I thought my
water paintings
were finished,
but there is still
a compulsion inside me
to do more.
Loved painting it!

Go with the flow, Julie!
ReplyDeleteGreat line, Carol. Did you have a smile as you typed it?
DeleteHope you are happily painting.
Beautiful Julie. Your fracturing technique is at it's best in this type of scene.
ReplyDeletePleased you like it, thank you Carol.
DeleteI was admiring the way you used beautiful variations of red in the light
areas on your red flowers. Lovely painting.
Who could ever get tired of a beautiful waterfall and the way that you render that? Not me! Keep going:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your support, Libby. You live in a beautiful area and I am sure you have many rivers and streams. Lets pray for lots of moisture or snow so they do not run dry next year.
DeleteThe texture in this is just gorgeous, Julie!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Joan. Love your fall colors in your new post.
DeleteLOVE your style Julie and I could never get tired of seeing your paintings! The splashes of blues and pinks are fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteI love the impressionist colors so I am glad you do too. Thanks, Hilda.
DeleteI hope they never finish and the title is very fitting!
ReplyDeleteMy hubby liked the title too. thanks, Celia.
DeleteHope you are working on another fall scene. The colors are wonderful in your last one.
This simply romps with energy, but what I always admire most is your ability to render the form and light. You clearly delineate the shapes of the rocky outcrops as well as how the water turns and drops over the various levels. It's grand!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely comment...it's grand! Thanks, Helene. I remarked already on your portrait's wonderful hair, but I have to admit the more amazing thing is you did it all in only two hours. Wow!
Deleteyay! more water :D
ReplyDeleteSweet!
DeleteMore dragons I see. I need to be educated more about them.
It's a beautiful one too, of course you had to do it xx
ReplyDeleteNice you understand. Are you painting at all?
DeleteWater floats your boat, Julie - just as it does mine. I love the way this water moves down the canvas through all the levels and changes of direction to cascade at the bottom in a melee. I understand the painting but the flashes of blue and pink are flashes of genius beyond my limited abilities.
ReplyDeleteI actually see those colors. I think the sun makes the contrast and a bit of a rainbow in the spray.
DeleteI enjoyed your really good explanation of how you will build the boat. It isexciting to know i will be watching it from the first mold onward.
Don't stop, these are beautiful little gems Julie.
ReplyDeleteAh - how nice you are - thanks dear Blanche.,
DeleteI love everything about this one Julie - flow, palette, texture. Beautiful
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Jeanette.
DeleteThe texture in your beautiful poppy is wonderful and so is your tribute for poppy day.
The long and short strokes really give us great motion.I feel like I am tumbling right over those rocks...terrific!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mary. Coming from a master of water - I will bask in your lovely comment.
DeleteYou created a really lovely glow in your band of trees. Hope you do another one.
Incredible how you can really SEE the strength of the water , amazing painting !
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jane. Yes, water is immensely powerful. Provides needed power for electricity, but is destructive too. I am fascinated by ripples to falls. Its the light catching on the surfaces which I strive to capture.
DeleteLooking forward to your next painting. Loved your fall grapes.
Every brush stroke so skillfully placed causing the eye to follow the path of the water starting at the top and on down. How do you do it? Beautiful.
