Barn in Winter

I really like the textures of the falling snow in this image. It's impressive how well it stands out against the red of the barn. The barn has a great shape that appears realistic. I think the brushstrokes you used on the trees are nice too.

Cloe,
A beautiful & peaceful picture of this Red Barn in a snow covered field with it's curved roof also snow covered behind the barn are a row of leafless trees. Created by your artist's eye for composition, very skilful digital techniques, beautiful choice blending & application of your colours in bringing this scene to life.
Susan

Finally! Something I can review!
This is awesome Cleo! I really like and appreciate this winter scene with vintage style barn.
The pop of red is fantastic.
The snow, textures and a bit of sparkle on the bare branches are beautiful.
Fantastic work!
;)

Comment from John Kotalac


I find it very peaceful, very still. When the days get shorter and the nights get long. The trees even look cold. But I love them, I have always tried to draw trees, you would think I would be able to by now. Lol,I am drawn to the colors of the barn, how it gets lighter and then darker on the side where maybe the sun is setting. Wishing you the best during this holiday season. John

Red barns are one of my favorites ! Nice job painting this barn in the soft quiet falling of snow. Your trees are nicely done with the ones in the back losing visibility in the snow fall

I like this unusual effect. Simple, impressionistic yet all the lines are lifelike. This is very pleasing. My appreciation and admiration!

Very clever digital rendition with a very appealing finish. Excellent drawing technical ability using digital means. The design and construction are very nicely balanced. Colour pallet perfect. I often wonder if you print out and what size. Merry Christmas

    I cannot print, but most of my painting are set up for printing at different formats between 4 by 6 inches and poster size. :o)

    My daughter does something similar with digital art and started her own shop on Etsy which sets up safe digital downloads. She does very well and has just bought her own printer and don't prints now. It's working very well for her.

Hey again Cleo! This is a really beautiful snowy scene you have created here. The red barn contrasts so well with the white snowy background. The snow is a nice touch and adds great detail. This is definitely a nice entry and a great work overall :)

Strong visual impact! There is just something so special about a red barn in the snow! I love the placement of the barn in this scene and the way you have placed the bare branched trees behind it, I love the snow covering the roof and can see that the snow is still falling!
Very well created digital painting . Well arranged and presented!

Snow is simply AWFUL in my opinion,Cleo! : (
But tht doesn't mean I can't appreciate interesting examples of art that features the horrible stuff!
Your digitally produced rendition of this snowy barn looks great,my friend! : )

    Well, snow is a four lettered s-word for me. I do not like winter, but to paint snow takes the cold out of it. :o)
