Quiet Inlet

HankDITank 02 Feb 2025

This is my version of Distant Hills! I had a lot of fun creating this painting, especially bringing the vibrant trees and reflections in the water to life. The most challenging part for me was achieving the soft, misty effect of the distant hills, but I think it created a nice contrast with the foreground.

One tip I have for other painters is not to be afraid of experimenting with color mixing and using a light touch when detailing the foliage—it really helps create a natural look.

What do you think? I'd love to hear any feedback or tips :)
