Corley Tree Shadows by Chris Downing

Certainly a lovely watercolour to return to painting with Chris. It's often good to take a break occassionally, come back enthusiastic again. As you say the strong tree shadows make the painting, welcome back!

Thanks Stephen

It's a smashing piece of strong watercolour Chris and nice to have you back painting. I know that problem but I was forced to take an 18 month break for medical reasons. and look now, come back in a different direction. Good luck.

What a smashing start to your return to painting Chris, look forward to seeing the next.

Really like this, love the sunlight and the tree shadows across the path, good tonal contrasts too Chris.

Thank for your encouraging comments Derek, Fiona and Carole.

Get back to painting regularly as soon as you can! You have great potential talent.

Thank you Robert

Great watercolour Chris. I like how the composition draws the eye in and holds it.

This is stunningly beautiful, Chris! Love the clarity of the light and the washes, the layering of the distances and the palette.

Dympna and Seok, thank you for taking the time to comment.
