The word that popped into my head is superb. I saw the sketch and this is a magical progression. Wow.

Looks good Derek. I like those dark horizontal and verticals against the more solid whites. Good rock colour as well!

Nicely done Derek, a different approach to a great subject and you have given it the power that it has nice one.

26 x 36cms on paper. I created texure in the falls with gesso. The rock formation was quite different at each side, with more vertical striations on the rights side, something to do with volcanic stuff long time ago.

Eleventyeight as my hashing pals called my new age recently, it's supposed to sound better. Trying to paint every day in acrylics using only expired credit/debit cards, and partially succeeding as they're only for me and not show these days.
