Lovely. I just did a tiny one, and yours looks better Just read: Fishing with John by Edith Iglauer set in your area on the water. Loved it so much I keep returning to it in bits and pieces.

Re: WDE Sept 7 Alders

I will have a look in the library for that book, Paula. It sounds like one of those books to cherish. Vancouver Island and the surrounding smaller islands are amazing, and every day I feel blessed to live here.

Thanks for the encouraging comments all!

Re: WDE Sept 7 Alders

Nice fall painting I like the addition of the shadows but prefered the looseness of the left side in the first version it gave more the illusion of distance
