Lovely painting Ron

"A joyful use of colour" is how I'd describe this, Ron. The blue of the water is particularly beautiful. Lovely reflections too.

Looks lovely Ron, and you’ve captured the river and it’s subtleties very well.

Oil on canvas, 18x18in. A scene captured on a local river during that golden hour when the sun is going down. Fortunately the sun was shining directly on a small tree on a rocky outcrop in a shallow part of the river. The painting was a challenge in capturing the mid-ground shallows with the submerged rocks and branches and then to merge them with the reflections from the opposite bank. The sunlight not only highlighted the tree foliage but the sediment in the shallows.
