Lake View

Love this Liezel. Beautiful work on the reeds and grasses. What medium have you used?

This is excellent and beautifully painted.

Really good ??watercolour......Like how you have brought the sky down to the water, then divided this up with the distant tree line, really excellent work Liezel.

Thanks so much Carole, its watercolour. I started with quite a detailed pencil sketch and a lot of masking fluid to keep some of the leaf/reed detail in tact.

Thanks so much Paul.

Many thanks David.

Lovely detailed reeds

This is really good. I very much like the amount of detail in the foreground and how you've achieved this

I like this very much.

Posts and wire always catch my eye, this is excellent Liezel.

Really like this Liezel. How intricately you’ve painted the foreground which compliments the lake behind it. Well done.

I agree with the other comments, Liezel, this is super! Love all the details and the beautiful subject. What size is it?

Thanks so much Hillary & Heather. The details were challenging but the end result very rewarding! Thanks Kate, I too have a thing for posts and fences, we have a few dilapidated ones around farm land where we live, makes for great inspiration! This view was from a trip a few weeks ago around the lakes of Co. Cavan, Ireland. Thanks Painful Painter, Christine and Mia. Mia, the size is 32x47cm.

Calm but stunning.

This is really lovely, Liezel.

Love this, I like the way you have painted the reeds and grasses, lots of intricate work going on here.

Really love this one.

Wonderful Liezel, amazing details of foliage in the foreground

I can see how much work you have put into this Liezel and the result is outstanding.

Thanks so much all for your lovely comments. (:

Another excellent painting. I like the use of a full range of tone in the foreground without any loss of subtlety.

Superb. Tremendous sense of depth and great treatment of the detail.

A stunning piece. I especially love the layered complexity of the foreground.

Amazing work, Liezel!

Fantastic painting

Thanks so much all for your wonderful comments, I really appreciate it.

Beautifully painted and a lovely striking composition Liezel. The tangle of reeds etc works so well.

Thank you Tessa

This is a beautiful image with a strong composition and delicate colours.
