Beautiful colour harmony :)

Thanks for your comment Lori. I put the bush in at the right to warm that area and to pull the color of the foreground into the darker trees. The bush also is supposed to keep the viewer from exiting the painting along the eye path between the grass and the dark area. Your eye should then follow the bush back to the focus circle formed by the light highlights of light valley, grey lg rocks and down to light on rocks/grass. A sneaky focus circular composition.At least that is what I tried. Happy painting to you

Well done Ann..love your rocks & trees as well as the softness lending depth to your background with desaturated colors. I'd just suggest that you look at the bit of orangey shrub on the right trees..I think they distract from leading the eye in. My eye want to travel down that gorgeous path but keeps looking back at that bush!

Good detail work in the foreground and love the sky.

That's really nice Ann! Feels very moody and atmospheric. I like the overall darker tones of the fore and mid-ground.

Wow, My... This is sooo Great. My husband said it is Excellent. But I do not think that is enough to describe this work. I love everything in it, the composition, the value control, the colour combination , the shapes and details manipulation, the hard and solft and losing edges, every stroke is well calculated, I can not find any floppy tired brush strokes, Everything, .... You name it.  The mood you created by the value contrast is so impressive. I am not a pro, I wish I would... I just love, love , love it. My favoriate, Ann. Congratulations!!!
