Waterfall in the Forest

This painting works better on the screen than in real life as the dark texture needs a strong light to bring out the best in it. There is a great amount of detail in the foliage which is not immediately apparent.

Beach with Lighthouse

The sky and the foreground are excellent. Compare foreground with that on Turquoise Beach above and the difference is startling. The perspective of the lighthouse confuses the eye as it does not taper sufficiently towards the top and appears to lean towards the viewer.

Variation on Niagara Falls

This painting was inspired by the view across Niagara Falls but the line of water at the point it tumbles over the brink has not quite worked. The sky is an improvement on earlier skies and the splashing water is still a little heavy. An OK picture but not one of my favourites.
