This is my latest pencil drawing of water. It isn’t titled, because the name of the falls is highly unpleasant. The drawing is unframed and it is on 11×14″ paper.
When I look at this drawing, I think about Millard Fillmore.
Who?
A president of the United States, maybe the 12th one. I’ve been listening to a podcast called “Presidential” by Washington Post reporter Lillian Cunningham. It is both entertaining and educational, a great combination when drawing rocks and water.
I could call the painting Rocks & Water. It is a little obvious.
I could call it Fillmore.
No, that’s too obscure.
Why do “obvious” and “obscure” have the same prefix?
Any ideas?
I mean about the title of the drawing, not the weird ob words.

What’s the name of the river?
Or “tumbling water” immediately came to mind. Or “flowing water.” Or “black and white drawing of water running over rocks in a stream bed.” Talk about “obvious!”
Sharon, it is the middle fork of the Kaweah. “Spring Run-off” seems to obvious too. . . but I will NOT call it “Suicide Falls” even though that is what that section is called by the rafters.
