Wow! Love everything about this one (I do love winter - so I may be a bit biased)! Such beautiful work with the colours - particularly how you've kept them so interesting as they recede. Wonderful strong foreground, and the muted distant trees are perfect. Inspiring painting, Wayne.

That snow and water is so well done. The foreground tree has great bark.

Thank you Triss and Queen .. might get a painting out of this one, yet

Beautiful. I love all the levels of snow I see here. The water is a sweet color too!

Another good one. This is how I want to paint. But a brush?! Traitor !! LOL

Where is the brushwork?

Where is the brushwork?

LOL .. thank you John .. actually I used a little brush to draw in my major intersections and the knife has pretty much laid those strokes out for the count.

 

[Donna T]

Wow! You do winter so well!

 

[Jo Castillo]

Thank you Jo.

another good one Wayne. Could you show a photo of your knife(s)?

 

[Enyaw]

Thank you John .. I got a nice rainbow a few weeks ago .. about 15 inches .. nice plump and full color. MMMM Good.

Thanks Bongo .. below is a picture but I use mostly the long one and the square tipped one.
From viewer left to right number 4 and 5 are my go to knives.
