gorgeous art work with a wonderful palette and i particularly like the foreground as the undergrowth frames the rest of the composition perfectly almost acting as an introduction to the sea and the sunset, asking the viewer to step inside and enjoy this beautiful scene. Excellent blending wok with the use dark and light tones throughout

Oh my, this is fantastic, I don't know how to say how it makes me feel, other than a slice of butter, on a big ol pile of flapjacks. You truly can recreate your experiences to share your reality. I'm a bit envious of your talent, thank you for sharing!

See why this one. Sunset is shown beautifully in the detail of the water. Birds in the far distant adds a nice touch to and eye popping view.

This is a really nice piece Linda. My first thoughts are that this should be the cover of a romance novel as it evokes that emotional response for me. But when viewing from a strictly artistic view I love the soothing warmth and softness of the wonderful pastel colors. The light textures and whimsy of the scene tie this altogether....the intimate view thru the grasses is particularly enchanting...very well done!

This is lovely! I love how you painted the sky and the sun. The birds flying near the sun are great. I also like the tall grass in the foreground. Best of luck in the contest!
