As the morning light was breaking through this spot in The Great Smoky National Park, I was also getting a breakthrough in the journey of my painting. I recently participated in a workshop with Alan McCarter, which required putting my small brushes aside and to begin painting with the larger ones, giving me the more expressive, loose painting I have so enjoyed in the work of other artists. Thanks to Alan's encouragement, lots of paint, a palette knife, a couple of large brushes and the Grace of God, I had a blast painting this gentle waterfall. I have this wonderful fascination with rocks and water and what better place to be than in the mountains of North Carolina.
