Love the colors and values. Has a nice sense of movement. I like how you direct your brush strokes as flowing water moves. It's also not a bad thing to keep that in mind for doing paintings of other subjects -- that the rhythms created that way add a layer of design that enhances the visual experience and creates a aesthetic sense to show what order the artist saw in the subject. That speaks to a higher level of why we would bother looking through the artist's eyes. It's an overall sense to the subject rather than just a bunch of random daubs. Musicians well understand this. It sometimes takes painters a little longer because they can get away with not doing it. But when they do, the art really sings.
