DescriptionDepiction of the Kaaterskill Falls in the Catskill Mountains in New York rendered in bright, punchy colors and bold brushstrokes. A pale blue waterfall in the background leads to a zigzagging flow of water in the midground with human figures in outline-like forms standing in the water and at the edges, all appearing to hold phones in their hands and/or looking at the screens. The earthen elements are bright pink and the trees range between neon to dark greens.
