I love the light hitting the tree

My God, your work is truly amazing! Did you take any schooling anywhere? Apprenticeship or teach yourself? Adding this one to my favorites.

"When cities burn and armies turn to flee in disarray, cowards will cry, “Tis best to fly” and fight another day. But warriors know it in their marrow, that when they die and fall, it is better to of fought and lost then to not of fought at all."

thankies. well ive basically been painting all my life, had some guidance from an artist friend but thats about it. i went to the Julian Ashton Art School for a bit, i had a years scholarship, but that was mainly doing the human figure. so when it comes to do doing landscapes im self taught

I love these so much. Any advice for people trying to get better at landscapes?

hmmm advice... well im not sure cause everyone has their own style...
but i always start with the sky, and ususlly work my way forward, so i always do the foreground last. i pay close attention to the light and colors, in fact i accentuate the colors, kinda like always make them a little brighter or deeper then the photo im working off. and another thing is working out how to do things the best way. like i have a certain way i do grass and certain stubby old brushes i use. the same with leaves, so i can do large areas in relatively quick time. but the key do doing good grass is having alot of variations of brown, or sienna or green, whatever the grass color, is on your palete. so when you are dapping it on - on your brush is like 4 colors.
if that makes any sense... lol
