That's simply beautiful, Fiona.

Lovely tones

This is really lovely - wow!

Really like the soft colours and tones in your painting.

Thats a beauty Fiona. You are going deeper into colour these days for sure. You are right its always best to keep it simple. They say less is more.

Love the pastel light effect Fiona. This is definately one of your best pictures.

So beautifully painted Fiona, I think if I touch it it would crack and crunch it has such a realistic iciness to it. The sheen I’d absolutely brilliant and painted so well.

So very atmospheric, Fiona and I love the delicate colours you used. Fantastic!

Lovely painting Fiona. I can see this would be beautiful hung.

This is lovely Fiona.

Really love this beautiful painting Fiona.

Simply the best, Fiona!

Beautiful, love the colour palette

Thank you very much everyone for your super comments.

There’s something so restful about this Fiona, wonderful soft shades, love that sunlight.

Very delicate painting.Has loads of atmosphere and is beautifully painted.Like it a lot

Carole thank you, it was the low sun that caught my eye and the quiet of the place. Thanks Margaret, I think they are a mis of birch and alder. That’s very kind of you Cecilia, thank you.

Superb, Fiona.

Love the colours in this Fiona, and I think the iciness is spot on.

You always create such beautiful colours, lines and light in your work Fiona. This is just lovely.

The soft light filtering through the trees is beautifully painted, Fiona.

There is a really serene and mellow feeling to the scene. The low sun is beautifully captured, Fiona.

This is great, especially the sun light shining through the branches, love it, Fiona.

Lovely golden glow Fiona.

This is lovely Fiona, perfect palette and so well captured - the water is great!

This is a beauty, can't single any one thing out, it's all marvellous

Fabulous Fiona! Perfect balance of tone and colour.

Fabulous painting, Fiona. Getting the frosty dull reflections is difficult (I've tried & failed) but the whole painting is enchanting.

I’m overwhelmed by your wonderful and generous comments, thank you all so much.

Oooh I do like this one Fiona. The reflections are really good as is the whole painting!

Thanks Louise. I actually took my time on this, not that it shows. I still think has some of my scruffy style.

Gorgeous and very relaxing to look at, I almost feel like I’m there.

Fiona this is absolutely gorgeous-you can almost feel the cold. I think everything else has been said in the other comments. (2 e-mails received thank you-reply on it's way in the next day or so)

Jacqueline, thank you very much. Hope you had a super day Carol, look forward to hearing your news. Thank you for your support, always appreciated.

Beautifully painted, Fiona. I have blinked actually when I saw the reflection Of the warm sunlight on the water. Really well done.

A beautiful painting. Great use of colours. Just right, and with energy.

Yoko and Gudrun.....thank you both very much for your kind comments.

The light in this is so gorgeous Fiona, lovely colour palette too.

Anjana, thank you very much.

Well I would hang it up on my wall at home

Thank you Trevor, that’s very kind of you to say so.

20”x14” oil on ply. Painted from a photo taken when we had the sharp frosts and ice about a month ago. What attracted me to this was the low sun reflecting on the slushy water which dulled and diffused the reflections. I haven’t managed to get the slushy film on the water very well, I might have another go from one of the other photos. There were many more branches and twigs but didn’t want to overpower the painting with them but it could probably do with a few more.
