Lady of the Lake

This is my third oil painting .... I figured out that I love painting water .... oils blend so well for the effect it's like magic. This is an immature mute swan, hence the rusty brown in her plummage and the not fully developed hump on her beak. This was basically a study in light.

You have got quite a talent if this is only your third oil painting! Well done! :)

I like the painting, but how about puting a little highlight into the eyes, it just adds a little more life.
