The challenge of this painting huge
but it was surpassed by the inspiration I felt during the process.
Actually, before, during and after.
I was out for a morning walk and the droplets started to come.

Just as these tiny droplets changed the landscape of this reflection.

the power of the droplet was magnified.
I let go of any preconceived notions I had
about the end result of the painting and just let it happen.
It truly is one of my favorites paintings that I have done.
I hope you enjoy it too!
