Autumn Pastorale 5

Artist's Gallery
Finishing Touches
What do you think of the white I added to the pond and sky? It transformed the scene into a windy day, with clouds blowing and water rippling. I think I went a little overboard with waves, but it is a neat effect. Also, by brightening up the closer trees even more, I lost a few nice shadows. But overall, this is a lovely picture of a beautiful fall day, especially as we watch the leaves fall this autumn, three years later!

Wow, that's amazing how you turned the original blue and green stripes into such a gorgeous painting!

It definitely gives a brighter, "happier" glow to the painting. I like it!
