     a captivating tree, I like both versions but prefer this one, they both have equal merit but I just like snow

    This is an incredible tree, Lisa - but I agree with Tolouse - I like the snow covered tree the best.  I also like what you have done to the background - it really helps in keeping your eye on the area of interest - really, really sweet!!

    I like the effects you have in this painting.  It seems the light was just right for your special effects and the snow was just right too.  Well done.

    To finish a work? To finish a picture? What nonsense! To finish it means to be through with it, to kill it, to rid it of its soul, to give it its final blow the coup de grace for the painter as well as for the picture.

    Well done, this is a stunning picture, that background gives it real depth.

    A very pretty picture.  The colours here work a treat and the way the eye wants to look beyond.  I really like it.
