From a photo I took last week. I’ve added the bracken and pine on the right to produce a better composition.

Not easy with pastels. very good result.

This is lovely! I really like the line of sunshine in there. It's very defining of your sloping forest scene. Nice work!

Very pretty scene. I like the handling of the trees.

Love those golden leaves on the trees and the bracken. It's a lovely, well balanced composition.

that is super nice .. that sky reeks of the truth behind your lighting.

Spectacular lighting effect, Arnie! Keeping everything else subdued really makes the tree and strip of grass glow.

 

[Queen Bee]

Lovely. Good play of light and shadow.

 

[Charlie’s Mum (Maureen)]

Yes, definitely needed the additions to stop the scene running away! It’s a lovely painting … lighting, pastel marks, colour …very nice.

 

[Christel]

Lovely! I admire your prowess with the softies.

 

[Sylwia J-D]

Beautiful autumn scenery.

 

[P. Barrie]

Real fine pastel work! The focal point/patch of light is gripping and leads the well composed scene.
