Forest Waterfall Landscape Painting

This is a contemporary landscape painting created using a combination of oil and acrylic paints on a square-format canvas. The composition features a central white waterfall that cascades down through a dense, stylized forest. The color palette is dominated by various shades of green, ranging from deep forest tones to lighter, mossy hues, complemented by grey, black, and pale yellowish-white highlights. The artist utilized a repetitive dabbing technique to create the texture of circular foliage on the trees flanking the falls, while the foreground and sides feature distinct vine-like branches with individually painted green leaves. A notable element is the small yellow circle located near the center of the water spray, possibly representing a sun or moon reflection. The craftsmanship exhibits a naive or folk-art aesthetic, characterized by simplified forms and a rhythmic application of paint rather than traditional realism. The condition appears sound, consistent with a one-year-old work, showing no visible cracking or fading. The paint layer has a slight sheen from the oil components over the flat acrylic base, and the edges of the canvas appear to be finished, suggesting it may have been painted to the edge or is ready for framing. No signature is clearly visible on the lower front corner of the work in this view.
