I love this; it's very beautiful.

Many thanks. It's actually a good deal better than an oil I did of the same scene, probably because it's less overworked. Glad I took up watercolour: I hope in time that the lessons learned from it will help my other paintings.

Very remiss of me not to have a look round your gallery Robert. For me your Acrylic and Oil work comes through strongly in this lovely watercolour.

Wonderful feathery luminous quality. I can only hope to aspire to such grand work as yours Robert. Rich playful use of brushstrokes and earthy hues.

Good feeling of the light penetrating the foliage. Very well observed Robert.
