Thanks everyone, I really appreciate your comments

Fantastic work. My only comment would be I am not so sure of the trees at the door. I think they (due to size) take away from the entry. Other than that this is some of the best watercolor I have seen in quite some time.

Tina, these are really amazing. They have such a wonderful quality.
If you are looking for critique, in search of perfection, it is possible to push one's self and try and find something.
I have to agree with Mike's comment about the surrounding trees. They are too bright a colour and contrasty and steel from the focus of the building.

I also agree about tree in front of the doorway. It does obscure. Being semi-transparent really doesn't change that and I have a personal problem with semi-transparent trees anyway. I know it is done in architecture, but I really don't think it is necessary and frankly, its a weird convention. If the tree is really going to obscure something important, use a skimpier tree. Otherwise, if it is just more brick, we get the idea and there is no reason to go transparent.

In this one the tree actually obscures the doorway and 90 percent of the time the focuse of these renderings should be the doorway. Inviting one in so to speak. Therefore the greatest area of contrast should always be arranged to be at the door. This door is a little too dark and obscured. In fact the window to the left is more contrasty.

But that was just pushing an academic critique. The overall execution is masterful, the moode delightful the technque wonderful.

Tina!

Absolutely wonderful work - I so enjoy your style. I think Susan's critique is right on, and I benefitted from looking at you images again to see what she was describing. I hope it was received well because it was very helpfull.

Yes, I agree... I should have made those darker. Thanks for reminding me of that, both of you

I totally agree, in this case it was specified by the client that these trees were there and the he would not agree to a change in angle, so..... darn clients

Thank you Susan, you know how much I appreciate your input. It is always so valuable!

And thank you to everyone else as well!!
