This was my second oil painting. It was really fun learning how to paint water. Did you know you paint the reflection before the water? When I was painting I imagined roling down the hill and falling in the water. SPLASH!
Excellent – so peaceful! I would like to sit on the bank, in the heather (that lighter bit looks like some flower growing on the banks, to me) and just wonder ….
Great job on achieving the depth in this painting. The progressive lightening and color shift of the background trees really captures a feeling of the outdoors.

I like this painting because how the water shines the clifs near the houses.
