Description
Working to learn the brush functions of Painter with this piece. I have long been a fan of John Constable and always feel his influence in the way I see a scene. I used Lake George by John Casilear as a reference for parts of the picture to better concentrate on brush workings. No cloning however.
So much to learn!

Wow!!!excellent painting as always ,artistry done !!well doneVOTE
To my eyes this is stunningly great. This level of talent and ability is beyond me at this time- it's beautiful.
Excellent Ken, just excellent. Especially the painted parts show your mastery. To be very honest, i think the oil painting style and the photorealistic clouds don't go together perfectly but add a sort of collage character to the whole thing.
Excellent work!
