Willingham Woods by Charlie Wardale

Soft pastel on Canson Mi-Teintes Touch, 12x9". This is a local beauty spot an after recent rain this puddle and the sunlit trees beyond, along with light filtering from the right, attracted my attention. Still not good at trees though! Painted from my own reference photo
