Upcoming theme from www.theartistchallenge.com Turbulence
Standing next to the falls (from the Canadian side) one is drawn in and becomes spellbound by the ever changing rhythm of the rushing waters. The advantage of being able to see the falls from both the upper edge as well as the lower view from the "Maiden of the Mist" astounds even the most casual of observers. Not only is the power there for you to see but one feels this turbulence underfoot. Many an image was captured while visiting both the Canadian and American side of the falls with sketches drawn while in reflection of this area. The rainbows are plentiful and each as delicate as the mist that rises from the depths below.

What a powerful painting! I can almost hear that rushing water and the falls...so loud and strong. I really like the top collage, too.
Good morning Rhonda!
still going back and forth with the foreground waters. Painting in the negative areas found made the movement of the waters more crisp and "quicker" view of the work. Tackling a wave now just to see if not using the negative spaces slows the work down.
Your candied apples have ripened my appetite this morn and alas none to be found in the house. Snacking on the fruit of your labors instead (smile).
Wow, that's beautiful. I have got to find time to get back and look at Vikki's blog and the forum.
Beautiful !!!! I love the soft colours which lull the viewer into safety til they reach the edge. Gorgeous Sonya!
