Captures the morning sun wonderfully, the trees are great as usual, and I like the receding light on the distant mountain. Another lovely sketch.

Nice painting with your usual limited palette, Fiona. You are lucky to have this view from the window.

What a super view Fiona, from your window, must be a great inspiration for your painting. I live on the edge of a town and my view couldn't be more different! Especially like the way you've depicted the middle ground in this, the softness of the vegetation either side of the field.

Nice one Fiona! Love those trees :)

Thanks Andre, I&#39;m trying to take inspiration from your painting a day spree!<br />Thank you Cesare, yes I am lucky, I tell myself that every time I look at the views from the house.<br />Thank you very much Jenny, I don&#39;t have any excuse NOT to paint, even on a bad weather day. I must have painted this view so many times but each one turns out different!lol<br />Thanks Sarah! X

A great little sketch Fiona, perfect composition, and I also love the trees, and you have captured the sun nicely. Well done for adding the pole also, why not, it&#39;s there...

I think this is one of your best Fiona, fresh, transparent and not over worked, well done.

I do enjoy your paintings Fiona.

A lovely well balanced painting Fiona.

Alan, I&#39;m not very good at getting compositions right but I thought it needed something on that side, and yes it&#39;s there, so why not.<br /><br />Thank you Sylvia, that means a lot to me.<br /><br />Thanks Carole, much appreciated.

Fantastic sky and love the looseness of the trees!

I like the colours in this one Fiona. The blue in the tree against the yellow background is very effective.

Thank you very much Sarah and Margaret, appreciate your lovely comments.

Super view from your window Fiona and I like the addition of the pole, it balances the painting very well.

I&#39;m with Stephen Slater and Carole on this one. It&#39;s a delightful picture, Fiona.

Val, Lionel....thank you both very much.

Stunning piece, Fiona. I really like the lively brushwork and the beautiful use of washes.

Thanks again Seok!
