Original Landscape Oil Painting: Forest Waterfall with River

This appears to be an original landscape oil painting on canvas, depicting a lush forest scene with a prominent waterfall flowing into a river. The overall color palette is dominated by deep blues for the sky and water, and various shades of green and brown for the foliage and rocks. The painting exhibits a somewhat impressionistic or 'Bob Ross' style, characterized by thick impasto brushstrokes, particularly visible in the textured representation of the trees and the foam of the waterfall and river rapids. The waterfall is centrally located towards the upper middle of the composition, with dense, vibrant green and yellow-green trees flanking it and extending into the background. A distinctive long, thin diagonal element, possibly a fallen tree trunk or branch, crosses the waterfall. The river in the fore and mid-ground features large, chunky rocks or landmasses with brown and ochre tones, creating rapids and small waves rendered with white highlights. Two rectangular, boat-like shapes, brown in color, are visible on the water, appearing to float or be partially submerged. The canvas is stretched, and its edges show some minor wear and possibly paint splatters, suggesting it may have been created or stored in a working artistic environment. The visible condition suggests it is either newly created or well-preserved, with no obvious major damage, although the lighting in the image makes a definitive assessment of minor imperfections challenging. The loose, expressive brushwork indicates a spontaneous approach to landscape painting, and the quality of craftsmanship appears to be that of an amateur or emerging artist, focusing on capturing the mood and essence of the scene rather than minute detail. The estimated age of the painting is relatively recent, likely late 20th or 21st century, given its style and execution.
