A nice looking lakeside house, settled back in the woods and 2storeys high with balconies for the view of the forest. A beautiful summer painting of a home in the forest.

i like this semi abstract and the house has an air of oldness and slightly overgrown with the surrounding foliage even the broken paving in front adds something,good one Ray...brian

Hi Ray, I don't know why but I really love the shade of the house. You don't often see lavender houses. Love the way you did the trees and the way they surround the house.. They have a nice leafy look. I can
picture them gently blowing in the wind. Looks like you even have a little fountain in front of the house. The balconies were a nice touch for stargazing and lake views.Nicely done Ray! I enjoyed! Very summery and a great entry for the contest!
Good Luck! :o) Nancy

Thank you Nancy for your fine review. Maybe this house is up in the forests of Maine overlooking the lake. I am so glad you enjoy it. And thank you for the Luck. Ray

You've captured a wonderful-looking scene on the paper! The framing is well thought out, and the use of light and shadows adds both depth and character. The colours are vibrant, and the composition ties everything together seamlessly. Excellent effort! Here does my six for you. Have a great Sunday! Cheers!
