A pond nearAmble, Northumberland

There is a wonderful depth to the far foliage and the water Carole, which gives a luminosity to the colours. The feeling of calmness you speak about comes through.

The foliage on the far bank is excellent Carole, with that little bit of light coming through. A lovely scene.

This is beautiful Carol- love the depiction of the koi and how the eye is lead beautifully through the picture to that lovely light✨

Love the light coming in the top right, dear Carole! And the reeds are beautiful! Much love and God bless, Andy xxx

Wow - what a beautiful painting!! The colours are phenomenal!

Fantastic painting Carole, love the detail and that light flooding through producing gorgeous highlights.

This is delightful Carole, superb subject and your representation.

What a peaceful scene Carole. Your painting has a real depth of colour with beautiful light shining from the right lifting the foreground.

Love this one Carole. lovely deep hues and a perfect composition.

Very attractive composition Carole. I wonder where this could be - not my pond which has just had a good clean, it was in terrible state, just a wild life pond though, no fish.

The colours and foliage look amazing. Beautiful painting.

That's just beautiful, Carole. I like the contrasts between deep shade and bright light. Love the loose way you've shown the koi.

I love how you are brave with your dark colours in your paintings, this is lovely Carole.

Good one Carole, super colours and depth

Wonderful combination of light and colour.

Lovely colour palette Carole.

Very many thanks to all of you who have taken time to look at my work and leave such positive comments. They are so encouraging.

A lovely secret place, expertly captured Carole with the glimmer of sunlight.

Super colours. Love the reeds and mandating koi carp.

Really love this Carole especially the darks. They sometimes take a lot of courage, but really give it a punch!!

Many thanks for your kind words Carole, Linda and Audrey.

So beautiful, Carole!!!
