This is a beautiful work, there is just something so amazing and beautiful about lightning. You have done a great job at capturing that beauty here in your art. The horse gives it a nice added touch.

What a beautiful digital painting. The shades of bluish gray of the sky highlighted by the rolling white and gray clouds contrast well with the darker blues and blacks of the ground, the dark tree, and the black horse rearing in fright in the background. Great composition. well done!

Comment from Alison Williams


I"ve had quite a bit of difficulty getting to this picture, every time I tried, FA tended to hang up and throw a 'wobbly'. Lol, but I'm here now.

I love the drama and intensity of this painting, Moonwillow. What great expression. The wild horse and the wild landscape with stormclouds and lightning. The whole piece is very Wuthering Heights.

The lowering clouds and the greys and blacks are wonderful contrasts against the white of the clouds and the mount on which the horse rears. The grass/wheat almost flattened to the ground, wonderful. The tecture of the landscape, resembling stone and heather to my mind dramatic. I think perhaps the only thing, might be with the tree, a bit more of a sway in the branches from the wind that forces the wheat, but other than that, excellent work.

Well done.
Cheers, Alison

All I could say is that this is very beautiful and poetic. The horse is even speaking and I can hear it. The effects you did on the sky are impressive, we can even feel the rain and here this thunder!!!! it's amazing.Otherwise, even cutting off the tree would be interesting to see whether or not the horse presence is even more amphasized
However, I feel that the tree and the vegetation could be more perfectionized so that you obtain the high quality of you sky

This is a great digital painting. I love the horse on the hill and the lightning coming down. Very nice composition. I also like the contrast of the brown against the blue of the clouds.

Very moody and atmospheric, love the sky colours, very dramatic and the lightning is a nice touch. I like how the tree and horse are quite small, you can really get a feel for the size and power of the storm thats coming.
