Hey Everyone!
Today I wanted to share with you all an oil on canvas that I completed in the autumn of this year entitled Autumn Mountain Waterfall (unless you want to suggest a better title :). This painting was painted from my imagination rather that from a source.
Oil on Canvas 16 * 20 Autumn Mountain Waterfall
The colors this past fall were very inspiring and I painted four pieces through-out autumn this year. This painting is more of an impression rather than extremely detailed I simply wanted to capture the time of year.
In the painting you see a cascading waterfall pouring down the side of some very tall mountains, passing a little cabin and a pumpkin patch along the way.
Thanks for taking time to look and as always I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below!

Thanks again and Happy 2018!
Great artwork! I love this palette and details!!
Thank you so much! This past year I've spend a lot of time working only with primaries. Phthalo blue, Grumbacher red, Cadmium yellow and Titanium white. It's amazing the number of variations you can achive from this selection.
Good job! Continue in the same spirit and you will become a real art master! ;)
You sir, have painted my perfect retreat location, it's all there, the wooden cottage, the beautiful clear stream, nature at its finnest and most perfect, and for that I applaud you. Excellent work. Thank you so much for sharing.
That's something I love to hear! I enjoy creating places that escape this, at times, hectic world. Also you said retreat, maybe "Autumn Retreat" would be an even better title! Thanks!
"Autumn Retreat" has a nice ring to it, but it is your decision to make. ☺ Looking forward to seeing your future work.
thanks for showing another of your painting !! I as always love how you paint water,all these glares on the water! And I always like how you choose a theme for your painting! This cute forest house is very beautiful! And I really like the warm autumn leaves!These shades are very warm and delight me :)! Thank you! Always a great pleasure to watch your work! Lots of positive energy!! ^-^
Hi @happyholly I always love you're comments they are always so uplifting thank you!
Thank you ^-^ i am happy about it :)!
super talented i love this <3
Thank you I really appreciate that! I though that after seeing more of your work you might relate to some of the painting in the enchanted river series I've been working on enchanted river series 1 -- enchanted river series 2
thanks will check kthem out! i am really new to painting i was a fashion photographer but kinda moving towards painting i started only last year but can't wait to do more
It's really surprising to hear that you've been painting for just a year, you have a very artistic eye that comes through in your painting.
Wow, it looks like real photo, not a drawing. I like drawing nature also, but I don't have something so good like this. :)
Thank you so much and I think you have some awesome drawings personally!
Pretty!
Hey Choogirl, thank you! How was your holiday season?
Hey Choogirl, I was wondering if you could shed some light on something for me? I had noticed that you had a delegation vote for the content I create as well as @ausbitbank and I just want to say thank you and I've really appreciated those votes. I try to work hard and create good content, but then the delegation votes stopped and I was wondering if something changed in system or if I am doing something wrong in the way I create content? Just curious, you know I'm still pretty new and learning about how all this works. Thanks in advance for any info.
No, nothing has changed, don't worry. I have you on my steemvoter to auto-upvote your content and it's apparently broken right now and offline for a week. So no ones auto-upvotes are working at the moment--it's a really annoying--we are all feeling it.
Ausbitbank follows my votes, so he's not ignoring you either. I will look through your feed now and manually upvote your stuff.
Thank you so much for getting back to me about that, to be honest I was a bit bewildered because all the sudden votes stopped and I didn't know if it was something I did. Thanks for letting me know about Ausbitbank too. I think I had another too that stopped as well.
It seems like lots of stuff has been broken lately. Yesterday I kept getting timed out all together just trying to load Steemit. So is this a good time to hold back on some of the newest stuff that I've been getting ready to post? Thanks again for all your help and votes :)
Don't worry, you're not the only one feeling the pain in terms of lost votes. Plus I'm not happy about the missed curation rewards either.
You're right, a bunch of things seem to be broken at the moment.
It's up to you about posting. If you've got detailed one with process, then maybe hold off until steemvoter is back up. I can let you know, I'm monitoring their chat in discord for updates.
And happy new year by the way. Sorry, I missed your other comment the other day, I was on a hiatus last week while I was on holidays.
Oh I bet you're feeling the pain of it being down to a much greater degree that I am being a curiator, I'm really sorry about that!
I didn't really know how auto-upvotes worked at this point but I've been interested in learning more about it as I've got at least a few that I would love to provide some auto-upvotes.
I just read that it would be down for a full week as of three days ago for a migration to new servers.
No worries about the comment I hope you had an excellent holiday(vacation?) holiday (holiday?)! or both :)
Holidays is what Aussies call vacations. It doesn't relate to Christmas or whatever specifically, it's basically anytime you're not working.
i love oil paintings so much, seems like alot of people just stick with acrylics but this looks wonderful! keep it up!
Thank you I really enjoy oils the most too. I've worked with acrylics but I get a bit more freedom with oils!
