Like I mentioned at the beginning, this ended up being one my favorite waterfalls from the series. I’m realizing that I really like the ones that feel like they’re their own little secluded world. This painting presented some fun challenges. There were so many different textures with the rushing water, lush greenery, shadowed area, and man-made stone building. I really enjoyed being able to paint the hydroelectric plant again and you can even see Rocky Falls peeking around the corner in the background (here’s the blog post about Rocky Falls if you’d like to look back at that painting or learn more about the plant).
I had a lot of fun with this particular collection of waterfalls from Ithaca Gorge and, how by the way the paintings are grouped together, it’s almost like exploring the gorge. You even get peeks at some of the other waterfalls in the background of a few of the paintings.
Have you visited this gorge?
