Impressive painting – and a very impressive portfolio

Powerful image, I love the way the reflexion misses out the flowers on the tree….

I like this one very much!!!

Beautiful work. Distinctive.

‘God is our shelter and strength. always ready to help in times of trouble.
So we will not be afraid,even if the earth is shaken and the mountains fall into the ocean depths
even if the seas roar and rage, and the hills are shaken by the violence.’

nice picture

beautiful work, so calming and simple.

wow, I just went to log in and surprise – this painting is featured on the front page!!! I’m so excited!!! Thank you everyone for your wonderful comments!

Good for you, this is absolutely beautiful. I feel quiet, peaceful solitude when I see this… Much to my liking :)

...To add to my previous note…. I do especially love the subtlety of the pink blossoms in the trees, its really enhances so much.. I’m sure someone more articulate would have better words, but I think you catch my drift, lovely! :D

Very peaceful and beautifuly shot.

very imaginative and wonderfully done!

Awesome – and with a Christian feel – Well one

I love it, very good work!!

fantastic work

The reflection is so truthful to what happens every day to so many of us. We look at the reflection and don’t see the beauty that is really there. We tend to see the wrinkles (the reflection of the tree – branches with no blossoms) but forget that the wrikles were caused by smiles (reality of the blossoming tree). So who wants a smooth face now? This is such a beautiful painting. Thank you!

SUPERB!

This is breathtaking, and the title is so appropriate…beautiful work.

A mind calmer to look at :)
