Above Hope Bowdler by christine vandenhaute

Lots to like about this Christine, super use of greens

I love those soft greens, Christine, they make me want to go on a hike up there

Again a well painted landscape.

Close to home for me. You've done a great job of capturing the Shropshire Hills

There's a lot of green in this, which could have made it very hard to paint (and probably did!), but you've introduced a blue into the green, integrating sky and land: it's worked very well. I'm not normally very fond of a line of foliage at the base of a painting, it can look like a barrier, but it's worked well here - it's a strong foreground rather than a very detailed one, so it doesn't dominate or distract, and that overcomes any barrier effect.
