Description
This is one of eight new digital paintings I've finished during my rehab after surgery. I've had to do each in bits and pieces because I was restricted as to how much time I could spend on the computer. I still am unfortunately. But I did manage, like the Tortoise, to finish these in 15 minutes pieces! I've tried a variety of new painting styles and techniques and in most cases, including this one, have combined several styles by layering one over the other. Hope you're going to like them. I'm still behind on thank yous and catching up on your work but I'm doing my best to visit each of you as soon as possible.
Impressionist digital painting of the American Falls at Niagara Falls - hand done on a Wacom tablet using four completely different painting styles overlaid upon each other. Each brush stroke is individually applied as if on canvas but the advantage of digital painting is the ability to layer components and separate styles to create something totally unique.
Niagara Falls is the name given to three distinct waterfalls that straddle the river on the border between the United States and Canada between the cities of Niagara Falls, Ontario and Niagara Falls, NY. The Falls occur on the Niagara River which cuts through the isthmus between Lake Ontario and Lake Erie. The three waterfalls are Horseshoe Falls, located entirely on the Canadian side of the River, the American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls both of which are located entirely on the American side. According to Wikipedia, "the combined falls form the highest flow rate of any waterfall in the world, with a vertical drop of more than 165 feet (50 m). Horseshoe Falls is the most powerful waterfall in North America, as measured by vertical height and also by flow rate."
