Beautiful painting, Artman!

I agree with the flag, it really does look like it's waving in the wind! The eye is really drawn up there. Your sky is also very nicely done, I love the overall palette you used.

Excellent work!

Lynn

Woooowwwww very cool. Excellent job. Wondering if the reflection in the water could stand to go a tad darker.

You can certainly put me on your fan list. Really nicely done. I do agree with a little more darkness in the water. Beautiful job.
