Hi Jewell!
That's an impressive watercolor painting indeed,my friend
It has a dramatic sort of 'Bleak' and 'Cold' feel to it that fits a winter scene perfectly!
'Good Show',my friend!

WOW! Jewel, I am impressed! Love this beautiful winter scene. Love the beautiful birch against the soft bluish-grey sky. Looks like you have a little stream in your image too. The scenic view has a nice touch of winter. Looks like a beautiful place to hike. Just had to give this a six!Good Luck in the Contest My Friend! :o) Nancy

This is beautiful. I can feel the cold and really like white birch trees and their textured bark. Maybe darken the background a bit more to draw the focus on the most foreground tree.

Hey there Jewell!
What a beautiful painting you have presented here! The colors and depth set the viewer up for a nice cold wintery scene. The shading, use of light and shadow are all present here and make for a nice initial impact. Thanks for the share and good luck!

Beautiful winter scene painted with lovely muted colours. Nicely composed and balanced. Great light and shading and I like the green wash in the middle. A pleasure to view your artwork Jewell and all the best in the contest!

Very nice. Walking through the woods in winter brings back memories. Wonderful composition with excellent perspective. Winter is a wonderful time of the year. You have captured that moment in time.

Comment from avmurray
It is such a lovely scene you have pictured here, and I especially like the limited but lovely color pallet. Especially the snow is well done with the fine shadings and textures, and you have used high lights really well.
Your brush work is very good with a fine flow, and I also think you have paid good attention to details.
The format and framing is perfect, and with the two largest trees off to the left, and also fine leading lines, it is a very good flow and balance in the composition.
I think this is a truly lovely and well done water color painting Jewell, and I wish you luck with the contest.

A beautiful painting this is! Your choice of colors is so natural and gives a peaceful background to the wonderful details and soft, abstract style you have created. Well composed with excellent skills and talent. Great work!
