Did you under-paint with black gesso? I see a lot of nice water action there, and many distinct bushes and trees with lots of liner detail. Nice work!

yes, black & gray gesso. Thank you for saying something Forest, I've kinda decided the stream looks like a toliet paper roll rolled out.....hehehehehe....I've actually grown to love the forest

If youโ€™re like me, Iโ€™m always my worst critic. Then as you note, days later I look at it and recognize something good!
I see sparkles in the water I guess from wet paint shine. Not seeing TP ๐Ÿง๐Ÿ˜‚
