Last Light on Burford Lake

I painted this from a photo I took many years ago in the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge.  This is a stream running into a small lake named Burford Lake.  I had painted this scene six years ago and decided to try painting it again to see if my painting skills have improved.  It is quite a bit better than the former version.  It's good to know I'm improving in my painting.  I don't compare my paintings with other artists's work; instead, I compare my later paintings with earlier paintings.  My goal is to improve as a painter.
