Abstraction Already Evident

I just finished this acrylic painting the other day. It looks fairly abstract and I toyed with making it more so, but decided on letting it be the "water" that it was. Perhaps in painting a few more of these water studies, I will let it become more and more abstracted once I understand how water works a little better. I find that I am drawn to things "untouchable" and ethereal  like clouds, smoke, water, shadows and reflections. The mere challenge of trying to hold on to something so slippery and to freeze it time somehow is where I always seem to end up. Maybe that's why dusk is my most favorite time of day. It truly lasts only for minutes... and then it moves into evening, then night. This took longer than I thought that it would and thankfully, I chose to paint it in acrylic, otherwise it would have taken forever to dry.
