No doubt that there is no better place to be than on or near the water as the sun rises or sets. The palette of purples and blues layered to give the dawn this magic feel is so well done. The rule of thirds is honored beautifully. The use of the tree line as a divider and then the lower center of water reflecting the sunrise balances the scene so well. Great job.

Wow! I had to really look at this one to be sure that it was a painting and not a photograph , it's so realistic, look at that sloping land line , there is so much detail to be seen there it's very realistic! The land is also very well placed to allow more space for the sky , this gives such nice depth to your scene!
The sky is Amazing ! I can see the sun rising and sending its light up into the clouds! The pink and purple tones over the blue sky is so beautifully shown, the lake is reflecting the colors and it's awesome the way you show the light on the lake too! I love mornings and sunrises bringing the promise of a brand new day.
I can imagine standing there with my camera !
This is such a pleasure to view !
I love this !
Very well created, it's beautifully arranged and presented! This one should really make you feel proud!

Oooolala those colors are simply wonderful. You gave this absolutely stunning depth with your shading on both sides. Drawing our eyes directly to the sunrise. This was perfectly executed. Fantastic job. It is beautiful.

Comment from Charlotte Morse


Monica this is a lovely work of art! You've painted it so well, especially on the land part, there's so much detail.
Of course purple being my favourite colour makes me a little biased! Lol
I particularly like the slight dip in the hills with the sun in all its glorious colours, about to rise from behind it.
Beautifully created.
Charlotte
