Tere's a lovely mood in your painting, David, beautifully and skillfully painted

You certainly are a master of landscape with brilliance David stunning work superb light.

Surely you have got to grip with it this time David. It's a beauty. The only thing I can say the scene is very cleanly swept. Not a branch, twig or leaf on the ground. Thats not meant to be a critisim, it's that l noticed how free of bits and bobs the ground is. Super composition and use of shadows. So very well done throughout.

What brilliant detail, so inviting David. The recession is beautifully executed.

Very nice David it looks real

Stunning work David, so realistic and so skilfully painted. Great use of medium.

Like to be there.

thankyou Willie lovely comments cheers Dennis very kind John, brilliant comments thankyou. you are right of course re twigs and leaves (i swept the ground before I started lol) in an ideal world I wouldn't have grey flecks of hair coming through I would have a perfect head of dark brown .I also missed out an abandoned shopping trolley ,drink cartons and sweet wrappers all the best

many thanks Carole lovely comments cheers Dennis much appreciated Cesare you are very kind thankyou thankyou Holger much appreciated

Lovely work David, that path is so inviting, the shadows are very well described.

many thanks Stephen for your kind comments

The light and shadows along the path are superb David. They dance along so nicely right to the end of the pathwAy.

thankyou Sarah very nice comments which are much appreciated x

Skillful is the word, amazing piece David.

Alan very kind words thankyou very much all the best

Lol David you make me laugh. I appreciate your artistic licence. However when l paint outside I sweep plenty of leaves and twigs into the painting area. That way I can have a joyful time with my palette knife and colours. As for the shopping trolleys, they grow here in the hedges as well.

Still getting to grips with it? David, I think you've most certainly cracked it! You have a canny knack of capturing perfectly that particular time of day 'light', you aim for.

Amazingly good work David.

What a beautiful picture. It is just hypnotic.

Almost missed this one, brilliant, so realistic, love the shadows of trees on the floor, a lovely sunny day

Fiona thankyou but I'm never totally happy with anything I produce x

David I had just returned from a short break abroad and was trying to catch up on the vast amount of postings that had accumulated during my time away, and inadvertently called you 'John.' Please accept my sincere apologies. I congratulate you once again on such a superb painting.

Russell thankyou but no problem it is difficult catching up I was away for a week and felt guilty about not commenting on other peoples work .I don't mind what names I'm called as long as someone buys my pictures !but it was lovely of you to take the trouble to resend .I look forward to seeing your next work best wishes David

Farm track is painted in gouache a medium I enjoy using it dries quickly like watercolour but can be used like acrylic.I have used no more than 5 colours from the Winsor and Newton designer range .I have painted this scene several times in different media at different times of the year I am still trying to get to grips with it!
