Wonderful artwork of this frozen pond and all the trees framing it, also frozen at this cold time..
Cheerful colors and light are peaking through as a new sunrise emerges in the back on the horizon.
Ray, great and warm presentation in the freezing winter.

A lovely painting of a lake partially frozen and surrounding trees in the midst of winter. The colors are cool and fully represent the feeling of winter. Good luck in the contest.

Why can I feel the temperature drop through the picture. This is an amazing painting of the partially frozen pond. Beautifully done, thank you for sharing!

What a place to go skating ( at least when the ice is nice and solid)! We had a little pond in my back yard when I was a kid and used to do a lot of skating. This brings back memories of that time. Love how this almost has a slight foggy appearance. the light colors make you feel the chill in the air. Always loved it when ice was still forming. There were such pretty designs in fresh thin ice. Looks like thee tree limbs might have a slight frost, snow or freezing rain on them. I'm picturing a pretty sunset behind them. Love the view you created.
I think this is a great entry for the winter art contest. I enjoyed the view! Good Luck! :o) Nancy

Colorful creation. The depth is great. The details is great. The shading is great. The blend of the colors is great. The.tree forms is good. Nice job on the reflective pond. The presentation is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. Creative and great job overall

You seem to have adopted an innovative technique. The experimental techniques used here are impressive. The interplay between smooth and rough textures adds an intriguing visual contrast. Well done, Ray! Good luck!
