Pastel Skies

All the elements of this picture are fine but putting them together has not quite worked. They are all too much in the same plane, it needs either something large in sharp focus in the foreground or something small and hazy in the background to give more depth.

Tranquil Waters

My best so far. The S shaped water draws the eye into the picture, the blue-grey trees in the distance add to the illusion of depth and the overall effect is exactly as I pictured it when it was being painted. I am pleased with this picture. I still cannot draw but I believe I can paint, maybe the Art Teacher was right.

After several attempts this is the nearest we could get to a smile.
