The ledges on the Grande Chute were a great place to swim. The bottom was rough with large boulders but the back eddy spilled a constant flow of water over you if you hung on to the rocks on the edge of the current. I wanted to record the place and maybe capture some of the fun I enjoyed painting and swimming in that pool. The air mass was still hot and humid as one would expect with the southwesterly conveyor belt flow right off the Gulf of Mexico. Thunderstorms were again on the overnight menu. This painting was intended as a partner to #2151 "Grande Chute Cataract".
The smooth panels require that you mix the correct colour, lay it in and leave it alone. If one tries to go back in to polish the brush stroke or maybe correct a tone or colour, the rocks would quickly turn into mud. It was better to just dive into the scene and enjoy the moment.
I paint outside - nothing between my eyes and the inspiration. That special connectivity gets into the pigments and you quickly realize that we are all stewards of the land, privileged to appreciate its beauty during our lifetime but responsible for leaving the environment better off for the future and all inhabitants...
