I like this, but maybe you were painting with too much sun on canvas or in eyes? Reads a bit dark & fence bars the view from entry, which I get critiqued a lot for. Good movement n' color.

Artist Reply: Thanks for your thoughts. I agree with the darkness. It is a bit dark, especially the mountain in the distance. It should be a bit lighter. I think my problem was that this was very early morning light and most of the mountain was still in shadow. The fence I think is minimal enough to consider as just a verticle line to break the horizontal mass of the field. Although now that I think about it, if I did it again I would put the larger post a bit to the left of the short post.
