The second-tallest year-round waterfall in the United States has a way of making everything beneath it feel wonderfully small.
The mist reaches you before the full height of Multnomah Falls comes into view. Then you look up—all 620 feet of it, falling in two tiers past Benson Bridge and into the moss-covered Gorge below. With each layer of color, you’ll bring that view to life—the water, the stone bridge, and the deep greens of the Gorge emerging from the wood beneath your brush.
What It Is
Wood Canvas by ChicaTiza is a complete DIY wood painting kit that transforms an original ChicaTiza design into artwork you can create at home. The composition is lightly etched onto a real maple wood canvas, providing clear lines to follow while preserving the natural character of the wood and the creativity of painting it yourself. Each design is cut into its own coordinating shape, making the completed piece distinctive wooden wall art or tabletop décor.
What’s Included
Each Wood Canvas art kit includes one lightly etched maple wood canvas, a full-color reference card, ample ChicaTiza Paint, paintbrushes, sealer, and the appropriate hanger or display stand. Everything needed to paint, finish, and display your artwork arrives in the kit.
Why You’ll Love It
Every Wood Canvas begins with an original ChicaTiza composition, thoughtfully designed to give you a strong starting point while leaving room for your own creative choices. Because the artwork is created on real maple wood, you can leave portions of the natural grain visible or explore a range of artistic finishes. ChicaTiza Paint can be thinned into translucent watercolor washes and stain-like color, layered for rich opaque coverage, or built into thick, impasto-style texture. It blends beautifully with water or an oil medium, giving you room to combine techniques and make the finished artwork your own.
How It Works
Use the lightly etched outlines and full-color reference card to bring the composition to life. Apply translucent layers where you want the maple grain to show, use fuller coverage for bold color, or combine painting techniques to create depth and texture. Once the artwork has dried, apply the included sealer and attach the hanger or stand for display.
About the Design
The Multnomah Falls design depicts Oregon’s landmark two-tiered waterfall descending through the steep, forested cliffs of the Columbia River Gorge. Benson Bridge spans the narrow divide between the upper and lower falls, surrounded by evergreen trees, mossy green rock walls, and a blue pool at the base. The tall vertical composition follows the full drop of the waterfall from the upper cliff to the water below.
