Stormy Weather

Okay, another one with moving water, but it was the clouds that begged me to try painting this piece. I love storms, despite my mother's fear of them. I enjoy watching clouds roll in across the sky, how the wind whips at them and how dark they can actually get. Most of all, I love the smell of the coming rain and the thunder.

Winter Wonderland

This was a bit of a challenge for me. I've never tried reproducing a mountain like the one in the background before, but I'm please with how it turned out. The moving water on the onther hand, could do with more work. I've never been good at water, unless it's still.

River

This is one of my first attempts at creating a water reflection. I don't think it turned out too well, but it was good for practice.

Island Home

From the imagination. I hadn't used Twisted Brush for a long time and decided to reacquaint myself with it. The mountains look terrible as do the clouds, but I'm happy with the way the water turned out.

Desert Rocks

A little something from the imagination based on my love of these colours. It's not complete, I need to add more grass in the foreground at the base of the rocks, but I think it works as is.

Lake

Another painting based on colour that caught the eye. The pinks, blues and greys in the water was a real attention grabber. I think the background hills are a little to light, maybe a re-work for a future date.

Reflection

It was the colours in the sky, that led to me doing this piece, though I did add a bit too much yellow. I'm not convinced this one actually works. The setting is nice enough, I'm just not sure on some of the foreground colours.
