I've painted this location once before, in the piece titled "Woodland Waterfall" but I wanted another go at it that included more of the surrounding woods and area below the falls, and more of the sunlight that was streaming in through the trees.
I chose to do a smaller painting even though I am including more of the landscape. I am really enjoying how these smaller paintings feel when framed. The have an intimacy to them and feel like little secrets. Big subjects done small in size have their own challenges but I expect it is a size and format I will return to often.
