The intricate detailing on the Pine tree is really good!
The whole composition even the wood on the
cottage comes alive to its true nature. The cottage
in the background horizon brings it all together,
with the dimension of it.

Nice composition overall, however, try using tapering or fan brush for the limbs, I know its pastel but try it anyway, the sky needs a little blue just to show a break in the weather and maybe a path to the house just to show depth from the foreground, keep up the good work!! Trev

Hi Santiago,

This is a very quaint piece. The gloom in the colors is actually very surprising, and I enjoy it. I like the sky and how you added the house off in the distance. Even though everything works well together, it seems to lack some definition (like in the grass that is the closest and on the wood of the house, which seems outlined in some places). You've done a fine job, but I'd like to challenge you to put more detail in things that are closer. The background is just fantastic. I hope you appreciate my honesty. Take care.

This is a very good painting. I like the colors you used in this shot, and that sky - wow! Looks like a storm is coming. Nice composition, highlights especially, and the trees look so realistic.

Santiago, what a quaint, if somewhat rundown little cottage, which you have rendered so well in this great pastel painting. I find the darkness of the scene very appealing and inviting. Even though the cottage needs a lot of work, I want to buy it and live there. Congratulations on a fine effort.
Peace, Papa

Nice drawing. The composition works well. The details seem a bit rough for my taste even though it does fit the subject to some extent. I look forward to seeing more of your work.
