Nice job Silvana.  I like the bits of warm you put into the blue shadows.  Your tree is vibrant and holds are attention..well done.  Suggestions:  paint a few dabs of brightly lit leaves over some of the tree trunks to give the feeling of form ..in life, there would be leaves in front of the trunks and branches.  On your background hill ..something I have mentioned a lot ..avoid concave lines ..use a series of convex lines.   When you paint blue ..put the other 2 primary colors into it ..very small amounts ..of course ..your blues are a little too intense ..if the blues were toned down, you tree would pop even more.  You have a warm ocher grass, the blue shadow must relate to that ..so you could put some of the tree color into the blue ..as an example...or ocher into the blue ...you want that to be a little grayer.  BTW, I really like the way we can see the continuation of the mountain behind the trees!! ..excellent!! ...Okay, pretty good painting, my friend ..talk to you later.
