Love the hints of colours. The tension in the sky. And movement in the painting 👏👏

You’ve caught a wonderfully damp and heavy atmosphere here Lynne

I love your colours and the light in the distance - excellent work, Lynne!

I like the diagonal composition, which adds drama Lynne.

I like a bit of dark brooding now and then. You can still get colour and contrast in there - and what your painting is NOT is dull; that's where you skill comes in.

I appreciate your complimentary, upbeat, and specific comments Sandra, Martin N., Valerie, Martin T., Anne, Carole, and Robert for the "not dull."

You've made a lovely painting of this impressive scenery Lynne.

I like dark and brooding landscapes and you excel at capturing them Lynne. I always look forward to your next posting!

George, Rachel, Heather, Fiona, your comments are most appreciated. I am 86, same as wonderful Anne. As you know, painting sustains and enriches through all obstacles; old age a biggie. The comments from all the artistic experiences of the painters-online, cheer the soul. Thank you.

Rather dark and brooding, I know. I continue to paint the mountains that surround me in the Blue Ridge Mountains (Charlottesville, VA). Composition is a bear.
