With this landscape painting of Norfolk, I was initially attracted to the sunlight on the silvery green of the upturned, wind blown leaves on the tree in the foreground. Which created an interesting counterchange with the darker raincloud behind. A convenient receding sailboat adds balance and a secondary focal point to the painting's composition All reproduction rights ©2006 Mike Langdale

Beautiful sky and reflections. You have a nice loose style, yet the details give just enough to complete the setting nicely.Christine brand 21 Jun 2006
