Hamsterley Forest waterfall painting
acrylic on canvas, 20x16"
The painting is on a stretched canvas, painted round the sides, with a string on the back, so it is ready to hang as it is, or can be framed if you prefer.
Warm autumn colours lit up the forest and the stream cascaded over the waterfall and swirled round the plunge pool below. It was the perfect place to sit on a log, have a snack and take in the surroundings. I let the feeling of it imprint on my mind as I knew I would revisit it in a painting later. The leaves would soon have fallen from the trees and the colours of that day would be gone, but the memory is captured in art.
