Sky Again 2

Glorious sky Lionel with lovely landscape down below

So atmospheric, a fantastic sky and the light on the gate is perfect.

A great re-work Lionel, wish some of mine were as successful! I agree with Val regarding the gate, the brightness leads the eye up into the sky.

Dramatic sky, Lionel, the light on the gate wonderful!

Thank you, Ladies, for your generous comments - I count them as lovely Christmas Presents! Seasons Greetings to each of you -. xxxx

Hi Lionel. Yes this works better. I like the gate and the trees are better too. They are different enough and not repetitive so well done on a great re-work. I feel that I can now walk into the painting and look beyond the gate.

Hi Lionel. So glad that you found my comments helpful - I'm pretty inexperienced & I know that I value comments and suggestions about the few pictures that I manage to complete & post. No, I'm not in S Australia but instead in SW Scotland. I almost said 'unfortunately', as we are being battered by repeated gales and torrential rain at the moment, so S Australia would be so much nicer. If it weren't for the cricket........

Super work, Lionel - the textures are beautifully rendered. Happy New Year!
