General chat 3 # Ashridge blue bell forest

At the start of my Easter holidays I went to Ashridge blue bell forest which is near where I live. As you can tell from the image we had amazing weather that day, I took my sketch pad and my camera and enjoyed sitting in the sun sketching away. When I got back home I decided to do a digital paint of the forest, I really liked the composition of one of my sketches so I used some of the photos for reference and started to paint. I really enjoyed painting this scene because I really enjoyed that day because of the weather. 

I decided to revisit the paint after a few crits from people on my course and from my own thoughts. As you can see I decided to add some darker tones and strengthened the trees as their opacity was low. Really pleased with the final outcome and it might even be put on my wall.
