Just love those trees

I like how you have managed all that green foliage , always a difficult task.

Great shadowy contrasts in the foliage. Fine work.

Lovely painting Martin, so many lovely greens and good reflections.

Very fine watercolour Martin.

This is fantastic, beautiful trees and sense of place. A winner

You're such a good draftsman, Martin. Fence and warm earth by it really nice, as is the handling of the space between the beautifully drawn/painted trees. Captivating painting.

View from the east end of the lake just above the weir outlet. I was attracted to the deep dark shadows contrasting with pale tree trunks and sandy bank. Started as pencil sketch en plein air and completed in studio with watercolour. On Studio Essentials rough block 16x12”
