I also like this - I like the impressionist look of the brushstrokes - if that's the right description. I would like to be able to do something like this but it's eluding me so far.

Very nice, it has a lovely calm feel to it. I love the muted colour palette you've chosen.

Beautifully done Pat....I like the way the background dissolves into a mist above the lake and mountains....
Take care,
Steve

Ah, peace. . . boy that water looks cold! I once upturned a canoe in one like that. Holy ice cubes, Batman. Couldn't even catch my breath when I tried to surface dive to retrieve my shoes and stuff in the water. And the fish just laughed their tails off. . .

Nice painting, Pat.

Wonderfully done, Pat! The palette is so calming as well.
