Oriental Falls

RebeccaJ 20 Oct 2025

16x20. This was a lot of fun to paint. Only took about two hours. The mottled background is from letting the liquid clear and paint thinner react. I noticed this one looks very different in different light, so I took a warm and a cool photo.

Reminds me of ukiyo-e style in Japan from the 1830s. Very good painting.

Thank you for your comments. I think this one looks better / holds more interest / in person because all the mottling effect. I think I will do a vertical version a bit larger with slightly muted colors.... lean into the oriental-ish influence

Beautifully painted--congrats!
