My husband and I are still enjoying discovering special little corners of the Finger Lakes Region, and one autumn day in 2025, we came across this stunning waterfall. It was minding its own business, as were the locals. They didn’t appear particularly impressed with our “discovery,” nor were they especially swayed by the natural beauty sitting right in their backyard.

We, however, were delighted.

Wolcott Falls Cascade captures that discovery in the fiery colors of autumn. Brilliant reds, oranges, and golds frame the sparkling water as it tumbles over rocks, alive with movement and light.

This original 9 × 12" acrylic painting of Wolcott Falls celebrates one of those unexpected Finger Lakes moments—the kind that makes you pull over, get out of the car, and wonder why everyone else isn’t staring, too.
