Hi, Sharon - yep, right! I thought of that horizon when listening to Richard on the video - but forgot! It is difficult to avoid in this one though! Thanks

I like the colorful sparkling water in the dark water near the boats, and the man with the nets.  It turned out great, but again the horizon line is in the center...

Oh one more suggestion, fix the perfect green triangle hill. Just a lump or bump here or there should do the trick !

I like the way that you put the foreground boats in shadow with a dark value. It brings intrigue to the painting. Nice value planning !  I think that the electric green is a little overpowering in the water. It might be more effective if  you tone the color down to echo the sky a little more. Maybe leave small ripples of the green leading the eye from front dark boats to the buildings. What ever you decide it is a creative approach to this painting.
