A super painting Martin! A lovely blue sky (haven't seen many of those lately) and I really like those birch trunks. Very good!

Beautifully 'hidden'. Everything about this is top notch.

Nicely balanced combination of ink and watercolour. Superb dry brush work on the foliage.

Oh Martin, what peace this beautifully rendered painting brings.

Super painting, it looks like the sort of place to while away a few hours.

In my usual current method I sketched en plein air with ink and added watercolour washes in studio. This lake feels more coastal than inland, probably because of the sandy beaches.
