The "top" painting is the original. The lower painting is the revised version. After a week of looking at the original, I felt it needed a few changes.... This lovely little stream flows along not far from where I live. The trees and flowers,grasses complemented the scene on the day I chose to paint this view.Painted in soft pastel on sanded surface paper. The completed award-winning painting is approximately 24"x28" framed.Contact artist for purchase . Copyright:Julie Mayser
