Nice study, especially the clouds.

I am envious of artists like you, I can’t paint like this.

Excellent.

This is very beautiful. Super sky and nice colour in the water.

I really like the colours and how they harmonize and the atmospheric mood of it.

I like the scene and your clouds. I do wish that your foreground bushes had more detail and crispness. The closer things are the clearer they are. BTW, I really like the colors of the water.

May all your mountains be small and your rivers be shallow.

Superb piece.
