A Painting Day - Rising Creek - Ruth Andre

The creek is dry right now but I cannot help but think about the coming rains and how the creek bed changes from rock and sand with leafy ferns and grasses to a powerful and beautiful water way. I think the painting, "Rising Creek" gives the feeling of how swiftly the creek water moves down its winding path through the valley.

You have such a way with color! The greens in this are subtle yet gorgeous. As a landscape painter, I'm jealous!!
