Thank you Britt- I was trying to be smart and get a "spotlight effect" that Richard had been talking about and felt a bit out of my depth so do appreciate your comment! Re your work - I was really thinking more of subject matter.

Thanks, Robin!  I know you meant that "versatile" as a compliment, but I'm still trying to pin down my "style".  I don't think I'll ever stick to a certain genre of subjects, though.  I keep my FB page more up-to-date than my website. BTW, the parts of this painting I like most--the sunlight on the paddler's back and where the right side hill meets the blue distant mountains.  There is a peaceful, tranquil feeling in this work!

Thank you for such encouragement Britt - have just been looking at your website- you are very versatile and have some delightful paintings there.

You are a great encourager Silvaner -thanks.
Thankyou too Fay. You are so right about spoiling with overwork - I get so frustrated with myself doing that because it's not where I want to go! Have even had another go at this one!!

This looks great Robin.  I think the right hand cliff and its reflections looks fine but I know how you feel - the more you work on a painting the harder it is to figure out where to stop.  I've spoilt a couple of my paintings by deciding to change them when I should have just left them alone.  The centre of interest - the river boats and the ripples on the water - are wonderful. Also the far cliff looks really good now.
