I lived in Yorkshire for 20 yrs and this is exactly as I remember it. Outstanding in every way. Well done and thanks for sharing.

What a beautiful oil painting. I love your colors. It is a very serene and peaceful painting. I am not an artist so I can't comment on your technique, but too me you did a great job. I like it. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely artwork. The topic, choice of colors. The river draws you to the bridge. Nice execution. The reflections along the right bank are very well executed as are the clouds. If I were to make one suggestion, it would be watch the brush strokes on the left, horizontal and is just a tiny bid distracting. It is between the 2 rock formations and takes a large corner of the piece. Other than that and I seriously doubt many would even notice, it is a beautiful piece I would be proud to hang on my wall. Congratulations

What a good looking painting this one is,my friend!
I don't work with oils myself but I like admiring the creations of other artists who do!
This fine looking scene is very attractive and it makes for a highly enjoyable view!

Yours is the first painting I ever commented on. I am more used to commenting on photographs. I am new to painting so I do not feel qualified to critique. I just want to let you know that I enjoy this very much. Is this a plain air painting? The spell check won't let me spell " plain air" correctly.

    Thank you so much for taking time to review my painting and I'm glad you enjoyed this. No, I wasn't actually there, I'm afraid - I looked at several photographs and came up with this.

Very nice work. (I probably would have made the rocks in left foreground less prominent, as my eyes keep going to them. I like the diagonal lines of this work --- the river and riverbanks... good job. The clouds are very believable --- you did a super job on them! ...I feel the same way about the foliage that lines both banks.

I think this is a lovely painting from this area, and I like especially that your landscape painting is including a little bridge. It adds a lot of interest, but also depth to the painting.

Your color pallet is very pleasing to the eye with the light blues and the muted greens. Your brush strokes are bold, but still this painting is done paying good attention to details.

Also the composition is working well with the river as a leading line bringing the viewer into the composition, and with a good placement of the bridge. I think this is a truly lovely and well done painting, and I wish you luck with the contest.
