Artist's Comments

This was painted for an Art competition being held nearby. I took the original photo at Thorpe Perrow Arboretum, and the painting took nearly a month. Pretty happy with the result, my next painting certainly wont be this detailed though I tell you now hehe.

Acrylic.

love the blue hues in there blended with browns. gives it a realistic tone.
Spectacular overall, is it finished?
:iconjpeckarts:
Thanks. Yeah its finished, originally I intended to paint in an entire background, but a mixture of not wanting to spoil it, and deadlines, made me fade it out early.
:iconakeli:
Wow, this is beautiful... :D I don't understand the lack of comments.

Thank you :)

This is stunning! Your style of painting is amazing - just out of interest, how did you do in that competition? :)
:iconjpeckarts:
Thankyou :)
Oh it was a fix! haha
It didnt get accepted, they got thousands of entries when they hardly expected any. So it didnt do well in the end :p
:iconjessiloo:
Oh no! Well, at least you have some beautiful artwork to show for it, even if it wasn't for much good reason :)
