Queen's Cascades, Blue Mountains, Australia
An acrylic painting 29cm x 21cm on paper of the stunning Wentworth Falls Queen’s Cascades which is a 10 minute drive from our home. Waterfalls are a gift from nature to be enjoyed and this one is exceptionally beautiful.
Water sparkles catching the light
like the glint of diamonds shining bright
cascading over the rock it pours
noisy, gushing… the movement roars
Linda
