At Mingo Falls
Watercolor
14.25 x 21.25
This is Mingo Falls in the Cherokee National Forest which is a part of the Great Smoky Mountains. I painted this "Plein Air" sitting high up on top of a huge fallen tree across the stream down from the falls. I was intrigued with how the filtered light fell across the interesting shapes and character of rocks and trees at the foot of the falls. The crystal clear stream meandered around and over moss covered rocks, fallen limbs and eventually underneath where I sat. The actual waterfall was a secondary interest, therefore the focus of the painting was the stream.
