Description

Ok, so this is my first landscape for a while. I tried to apply some new painting knowledge. (i read an interesting article in the forum, i forgot the name sowwy ^.^)

I also attempted in doing some credible atmospheric perspective. Hope it worked well.

Oh! and a big big thanks to arenhaus for his awsome tips!!!
Twas really helpful, so

THANKS!!!!!!!!!
(that was the big big thanks)

Critiques welcome!!

***EDIT***
Following arenhaus advices, I played with the saturation again ^^ I think it definitively looks better! Thanks again! I wont be scared to saturate anymore!!

here's tthe link to the old version ^__^

The soft pastels are a really nice look for it. It makes it all the more calming to look at. Good job. :)

I remember this. :) It could use even more contrast, and more saturation in the foreground; it's still a little uniform. The dark spots on the near tree don't quite look like openings; they look like smudges. Try reducing their saturation, and making them more in line with the shape of the tree: you don't have actual visible branches or clusters in there, but with these "openings" you could suggest them for a stylized, but convincing, quality.

Keep working. :)
