Very nicely handled Seok, good sense of distance and I like the foreground highlights. I had not seen your oil portfolio before, must investigate further!

Amazing work, beautiful as ever ------ You told me you did not paint green because you could not mix it. -This is green.Good use of green. And it works. --MEGA

Love the sense of distance and your fir trees are wonderful and their shadows.

Well you'vecertainly cracked the greens here, Seok, and I don't know why you think you have a problem with greens - this is lovely and so accomplished.

Lovely colours used and a feeling of distance too. A beautiful picture.

Lovely spot, beautiful painting Seok

Seok, you are brilliant at fir tree's....you make them look strong nd magnificent.

What a beautiful view, super feeling of light with the strong shadow.

Magnififecnt Seok. I like the way the distant blues are echoed in the closer rocks. It unifies the painting as a whole. Lovely work, and very different to your watercolours. Is there no end to your talent??

Really well done, Seok. You have kept the lightness in the fir trees, which can often appear dense and too dark. Great feeling of recession as well. Very attractive landscape painting of spectacular scenery.

A lovely painting Seok. Good composition and calm, earthy colours. Also beautifully painted fir trees, they are so difficult that I haven't even mastered a simple Xmas tree. Well done!

I agree 100% with the above comments, Seok. I also didn't know you painted in oil! Sorry if I do not post comments on all your latest works, but I have been away for 2 weeks (see my Blog "Surprise-party" or "Mia") and I missed about 60 pages of postings!

Thank you so very much, everyone for your very kind comments! Charles and Jane, I have to admit I am not as daunted by greens in oils as I am by greens in watercolor! There's always every opportunity to cover up the parts that don't work, and believe me, I've done that many times in this painting! Mia, no problem, I know you've been busy. I am also struggling to keep up with the postings due to my schedule. There's an awful lot of good stuff that's flying by.

Really adventurous colours - I wish I could be as bold in my watercolours - yet another great work...

Thank you very much, Michael!
