Himalayan Idyll by Seok Yam Chew

This is beautifully done Seok, to think you used to struggle with greens! Such a range here, from greys to rich, sunny greens.

Beautiful painting Seok

It's pretty well all been said, so what can I add, wish I could be there to experience the ambience of the scene, and of course, not forgetting the humidity which no doubt was stifling. Great tonal range and values here Seok, it's just superb.<br /><br />Thank you for all your comments today on my work Seok, greatly appreciate your input.

The textures work very well - easier to do in oil than acrylic. And these are very convincing, "jungly" greens. There could be almost anything lurking in those grasses and trees.......

Expressive and meaningful marks amongst varied greens give us that sense of atomosphere and somthing I alwasy wanted to do and didn't. Managed to get in jungles but not high in Malaysia

Beauty! Love the composition and that tree is brilliant.

This is a treasure Seok and another one of your paintings were, I wish I could capture moments in time as you do. Just beautiful. Thank you so much also for all your comments on my recent postings, very much appreciate that you take the time to do so.

Well , Seok, what can I say that every one else has already said. I think what makes this different is the sultry sky making your greens jump out and of course a superb composition.

Posted by Fred Elwell on Sat 31 Oct 16:19:00

Love it, Seok. Texture, contrast, everything to please and draw the eye.

Fantastic, Seok!!! Every branch and leaf in it's place but still there's a freedom in this painting, a feeling of happiness even. The variation of different greens is remarkable!
