Comment from david F


i love the versatility of your work , i also love paths , they take the eye as well as the imagination along with them , thisn one into the depth of the forrest as well as the frame , they leave me wondering what is round the next bend , and this leaves me wondering at just how good you are

A very fine painting indeed. You should have entered this in the 'fall' contest. You delineation of the trees, the pathway are beyond reproach. The light and colouts stand out too. well done!

    Thank you so much Seshadri, I know, unfortunately I had already entered something for that and kicking myself now about it as it turns out to be one of my not so good ones. Ah well, you live and learn. Thank for the lovely comments

I really like the banked leaves, and the lovely color.I also like the path,and the little bend in it.The person adds scale to the large bare trees, and I think it is a great Novemeber picture! Donkeyoatey

Beautiful. Love the technique and the colors used in this work. Great use of leading lines. This tells a beautiful story. I like how you captured the light in your work. I bet the photographer would love this.

Some people will see loneliness
And some will see peace, while some will see time for meditation. I see all that and more in this shot. I love the composition, colors and ambiance.

    Thank you so much for the lovely review, yes I too see lonliness but not so much in a sad way but a reflective and peaceful way. I guess everyone will make up their own story with it
Comment from Anne


This is beautiful the way you have painted it. I like the way you have the path with the person in the distance. I like the way you have all the trees in this. I like the way you have done the branches with the leaves. An excellent and beautiful work of art.

Very nice Corrina! I love your pastels, this one is a great representation of November. Almost a spooky feeling to it with the figure deep in the woods down the path. Love how you illustrate trees and the leaves below.

    Thank you so much Michelle. It has got a bit of an eerie vibe hasn't it. I was a little worried I wouldn't get into this what with the lack of colour but I surprised myself, I can do gloomy if I really try lol I did cheat and throw in more colour than the original though, had to be done ;)

    That's cute, I do the same thing, throw in color where it might not be to get the effect I want. You placed the color perfectly here and it leads your eye right down the forest path. Beautiful pastel! As always:) Michelle
Comment from MerendaAlicia


Nice colors. Very appropriate to the season. Gorgeous lines and I love the pathway and how it learns your eye to the "Everyman" silhouette at the journeys end. Beautiful artistic expression.

How sad and lonely this all looks. So alone. Great job. Love the tall trees and the bit of color. Very well done.
