Fallingwater Cascades

Parkway Series #403    18 x 24     oil      $500.

This is a remake of #200 in the Series.  I am now going back and painting some of my favorites in larger sizes.  I remember this hike to Fallingwater Cascades vividly.  This is at the very bottom of the waterfall as you walk over the bridge and head back up the hill.  It was a very hot and humid day in August.  I love the hike but I will never do it again in August, not because of the weather, but because of the snakes!

Blue Ridge Marathon 2013

Parkway Series #402    12 x 24   oil    Donated to the Blue Ridge Parkway

I knew painting #394 needed something else but not until I talked with Pete Eshelman did I realize that it was destined to be the new "marathon" painting.  I took some of his photos from last year and added the runners and came up with painting #402!  Sometimes it is amazing how paintings take on a life of their own!
