Finally, I was able to get this watercolor framed. It has a lovely dark green frame which plays off the richness of the water. Due to the distortion of the camera I couldn't crop this like I wanted to.
Where ever I have traveled with this painting it has received strong positive feedback. I brought it to yoga class and it was placed in the front of the room where we meditated upon it. When I brought it to my painting group people endlessly examined every inch of the paper. Most people seemed to admire the atmospheric qualities specific to this subject.
The stillness of this subject conveys a calming, quiet demeanor which is in stark contrast to the lives we actually live. Perhaps it has a timeless quality.
I find the image compelling because it has really only one color to it - green.
