This is beautiful, very similar to my local countryside, this could be the Royal Forest of Dean

Thank you, Karie-Ann (pencilportraits.) Your drawings are lovely.

Reminds me of canal boat holidays we took when I was a kid, chugging serenely through the countryside counting water voles along the banks.

A lovely study. You really got the cows down. I know from experience they move just enough to be frustrating when drawing.

Don Gray said...

Sounds serene, Steve--where was that?

Don Gray said...

That's so true, Onpainting. The trick to painting them is to place them in the far distance and turn them into tiny rectangular globs of paint.

I like the square format for these landscapes Don. I think it gives strength to the composition. Very nice light on this one.

Don Gray said...

Thanks, Sheila. There is something about a square, isn't there?

Cows and water. So peaceful. You do a fabulous job.
