I showed this painting at last week's Paint Party Friday. Cathy commented that I was missing a chimney and some smoke for the house in the woods and I thought she was absolutely right, so I've now added that! It's acrylic on cardstock (.45" x 6.5")

Hello Christine
You know the moment I saw the addition I felt as though it sort of lifted the painting - it changed the whole feel, made it warmer - I don't know if that went against the intent of the original (cold winter scene). Anyway my eyes werepulled upwards and the trees seemed to be even taller than they were before!
Some may like it and some may not - I definitely do!!
Take care
Cathy
Take care
Yes, it made sense to add the chimney and smoke, because it was a lone house in the woods. Now, it looks like the house is actually occupied. Good job, Christine.
Beautiful, looks like a good place to live. Wonder where the next supermarket is? Valerie
I love it, those trees look great!! I love how they're so much bigger than the house, it would be really fun to live somewhere like that!
Those are a whooping big trees...love the little house. Great job, love it.. :)
I love the way you created depth in this sweet landscape with those tall tree trunks. I also love the simplicity of the boating scene you did a couple of weeks ago. Blessings!
I seem to remember this or something like it ~ very zen and creative ~ ^_^
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog (blog.adriennerose.me). I really like the idea of drawing all my tarot cards as well because there is really some inspiring artwork within the deck!
I just wanted to let you know that you happen to be a "no-reply blogger" meaning that when I (anyone) get a notification saying that you've left a comment.. I cannot easily contact you (meaning replying via email). I wrote about this in my blog not too long ago, and if you're interesting in fixing it please take a look at my post: http://blog.adriennerose.me/2013/01/hey-no-one-replies-to-me.html
nice sketch
I bet it's warm and cosy in there now :)
the addition of the chimney finishes it off perfectly...xx
It's beautiful! Christine. Love it:)
Okay, now we have come closer and people are home and it's homier! Still pretty last week though!
You are so brilliant. Well done. I love looking at your work.
Cheers from Cottage Country!
I think this would be my dream house!
I especially like that yellow background...what a fine little vacation cottage! ;)
Lovely little house by the deep woods...maybe there's a pot of tea on the stove...Gorgeous!
