Description
This is from a photograph taken by a friend near where they camp frequently. My husband said "You put a bear in it." I didn't. But if you look closely at the top of the clif on the left, there IS a bear - waiting for salmon. I entered this into "Art on the Lake" in northern Alabama juried contest with thousands of paintings from all over the southeast and came in first in fine arts. This was bought by a patron and given to a museum where it proudly hangs. Of course we went right over and took my picture with it.

Ron - how very generous of you to allow me to paint your pics. And yes, of course I'd place your name on it as the source reference. I teach oil and acrylic painting classes at the cultural center here in FL, and am backlogged for paintings! But I truly would enjoy painting one or two of your photos. Thank you again. :D

Ron, it was my pleasure to join! Thank YOU for starting this. Just finished looking at your site and all the wonderful photographs - a few of which I wouldn't mind painting - with your permission, of course. This is a fairly early painting of mine and now resides at a museum - what a shock that was! Again, thank you for taking the time to share you feelings/comments about this painting. I truly appreciate it. :D

Maggie - I must have missed your lovely comments as I don't see a reply, which is terrible on my part. I truly thank you for taking the time to send such a lovely comment on this painting. It's OLD - but still a fav of mine. I do so appreciate your comments and apologize again for not being even close to prompt!

Jane, thank you so very much for your truly lovely comments for Rocky Mountain Waterfall - another antique of mine! lol It's hanging in a museum now. This one took many hours to paint and several layers. But it was pure joy! You are always so generous in your comments and I very much appreciate them. You've made my day, week, etc. :D

Alanna, I have not viewed this one before.Wow! What a lot of success you had with this beautiful work and I can see why.Congrats to you! The water has such a shimmering sparkling joy to it. The rocks are subtle and beautifully shaded,yet strong and so powerful.I love the depth you have achieved with the leaning fir and beyond to the mountain peaks. Fantastic work! L/F

Latha - Namaste wa Essalaam wa aleakum. Hello dear friend. Thank you so much for your lovely comments on one of my fav paintings - and hardest! Of course I went to your site again - your style just drinks you in with all the peacefulness and bright colors at the same time. However do you do that? I know nothing about digital art - but am fascinated by it. "On the Eve of Golden Shower Festival" is so lovely! Another fav of yours. Actually, it's hard to pick a fav as I love them all. Latha, again, thank you for your beautiful comments and the F/V - they have made me very happy. :D

Eric - thank you! I wanted that affect. My teacher said to paint rocks first where the waterfall will be as some will jutt out behind the water - THEN paint the waterfall. It's all done with a fan brush! My first attempt at a waterfall. Thank you again for your very lovely comments. I appreciate it. :D

John - thank you so much for your lovely comment on Rocky Mountain Waterfall. This was don so many years ago - 1991 I think. Thank you again and thanks for the v/f :D
Eric Hansen
Something strange is going on here, the waterfall is moving? I checked my glasses, and cleaned them. Fantastic effect.
Alanna Hug-McAnnally
E Giupponi, thank you AGAIN for your gracious and lovely comments. This is one of my favorite paintings and one of my earliest. It hangs in a museum now. :D My teacher said about waterfalls to paint rocks jutting out first, so you can see them behind the waterfall. Never would have thought of that on my own. Thank you again. Greatly appreciated!
