Jones Gap again

Here's a painting I did with the pallette knife on the second day at Jones Gap State Park. I really was disappointed in it while there, but now, after taking another look at it, I like it. I feel it captured the chaotic movement of the water swirling and the dappled sunlight that was constantly changing and getting me so confused.

Yesterday, I took my Dave and 2 of my grandsons, Skylar (7) and Breckon (5) to Jones Gap so they could experience the beauty of the river and deep shade of the forest on such a hot and humid afternoon. It was great, we had so much fun hiking along the river, crawling around the rocks and watching the boys wading, throwing rocks and all that comes with little boys discovering nature. The air around the water was cool and as long as we were in the shade, the heat of the day was quite tolerable.
