Sunset on the Fen

Posted May 5, 2017, 2:05:30 PM UTC

Referenced from a photo of Wicken Fen, Cambridgeshire, England - I was assigned a landscape painting, wanted to do a sunset over wetland, and chose the fen because it's near where a friend used to live.

I couldn't quite fit it onto my scanner so I guess this is a preview and I can upload the proper version later?
Trees aren't my best but I'm still mostly pleased.

Beautiful scenery! Good color palette, matches up with the warm colors you'd definitely see from a sunset.

This is really pretty! I agree with MaskedDragonNamedLin on the reflections. I shared this to our twitter and facebook pages.

You did the reflection in the water really well, the colors are really rich and appealing. It must be an absolutely beautiful place to live near.
