I painted this from a photo I took of the Lake Michigan Shoreline. The location is Bay du Noc, Michigan. I can upload the original picture too if you'd like to see it :).

Entry Two

Acrylic on Canvas

Cascading waterfall surrounded by trees

I have incandescent lighting so it kind of has a yellowish tint :(

Beautiful picture! :love :love

If you wanted to retake the picture to get the lightening better, take the picture outside with a solid (no mix of sun and shadows) natural light. The lightening in your picture shouldn't affect in judging, so if you're worried about that, you're good. :)
