Show Stopper!

My painting is coming together nicely now that i've got the reflections of the trees in!  This week i have brightened some of the colours and also darkened the bottom half of the picture, to enable to sky to stand out more.  I painted the reflections in roughly and then, using a fan brush, softened them so that they sit right back and appear watery and blurred.  Next week i am going to add more shape to the reflections and then hopefully i will be revealing to you the final image.  This painting is getting a lot of attention amongst my art colleagues, i think it's turning out to be a little gem in my collection!

The painting is more balanced now that the reflections are in.
