New career doing book covers? Really well done, did I say I love the trees? The bark on the ones on the left is just perfect. I really, really like it.

Did you set out to paint this subject (well done, btw), or did it develop along the way?

Nicely done atmosphere. I could see this as an illustration for the first chapter of a murder mystery.

There’s an interesting story there.

Murder in the Winter.

I respect paintings that tell a story!
