Fishing Getaway part 1

This is a painting of fishing camp set in the swamps. It is painted using oil pastel paint sticks on oil pastel pad.
The painting depicts a serene lakeside scene, with a rustic wooden shack nestled amidst lush greenery. The forefront features vibrant trees with cascading leaves and blooming flora, creating a vibrant foreground with bursts of green and purple hues. The lake is calm, reflecting the soft colors of the sky which transitions from a gentle yellow at the horizon to more muted pastel tones further up, denoting either early morning or late evening. In the middle ground, a wooden dock extends into the lake, leading the eye naturally towards the shack, which exudes a quaint, weathered charm. The trees on either side frame the scene beautifully, adding depth and perspective.
