Photo not taken in daylight so looks a bit misty.

Love the foreground,and the colours and composition ,Carole.

Not boring at all! Love the colours and especially the light, also the ?hogweed in the foreground.

Love it Carole, nice colours and love the way you have blended them for the sky and background

A striking pastel Carole. The yellows are lovely.

I like it as well Carole. It has a misty warm glow to it!

Not boring Carole, it looks a lovely, soft pastel painting, sort of dreamy!

making up paintings is very difficult but this is a grand effort Carole

Very dreamy feel Carole, I like the heads of cow parsley.

Lovely work carole.

How lovely, Carole - like the mistiness

Beautiful dream like pasture Carole. Will wake up any minute.

Thanks everyone very much for your generous comments.

Lovely soft, dreamy scene.

Lovely misty moody scene.

I agree with the comments about a dreamy look, I find it vaguely mystic, as if some mythological character is going to appear. Very atmospheric.

Thanks so much Stephen, Shirley and Lewis. Lewis it needs some of your great characters in it ;))

No, it's not boring at all, quite the reverse actually. You have colour, composition, depth and originality. It's lovely, and that little fence in the middle ground is a stroke of genius. Brian

It's lovely Carole, I think you should use your pastels more often, there's some gorgeous colours in there and I love the softness you have created with the foreground 😃

Thanks ever so much Brian, you made my day! Thank you Linda very kind :)

Love it! Great sense of recession.

Excellent foreground and the blue/orange/yellow plus the hint of fencing. The more you look the more you see !

Some rather lovely passages in this piece Carole. I've been using pastel recently but with limited success.

The scene might be boring otherwise, but you made it look so inviting. Beautiful colours, soft background and nice marks indicating the foreground.

Thank you for your kind feedback, I feel encouraged:)

To eager to post Carole...the light doesn't do this justice. A lovely work just a little diffused.

Thanks Andre yes it is a bit diffused, not only the light I think it could be less blended will have to practice:)

I have to say that I like the 'diffused' effect, I think it's a very appealing painting. I did comment on this earlier but it didn't register, not the first time has this happened to me.

Lovely soft dream like effect , it’s a lovely piece

A lovely palette, with a very gentle, misty feel. Beautiful work, Carole!

Thanks Russell very kind and thank you very much Dermot and Seok.
