Looks good to me Dorothy & the sky is particularly well done thssupp

Thank you very much John, I had some advice from a fellow member re the sky, she also advised me to use my remaining colours on the palette to do the trees, I would usually scrap left over paint and start with fresh so it was a very good learning curve for me this week. ;)

Nice touch - the little bit of light in the foreground.

I saw a photograph of these trees a little while back. Really weird almost like they have come from a Surrealist Dali painting.

I agree Ken I think that is why I was attracted to paint them, Dali being one of my favourite artists.
thanks folks for you nice comments ;)

I did an ink pencil of these trees a while ago. I like your evening version. Well done.
