Lovely work on the branches

Beautiful!

Thank you, that's wonderful to hear, Gudocher! 

wonderful style!

Thank you, SeDiceBisonte, I'm so glad to hear that =) 

Lovely scene. The composition and texture work are superb.

Thanks, Flinigan, very nice to hear these words from you! I took a long look at your gallery in preparation to making this piece (as well as some other members for wood and cloud rendering techniques). Thank you for being an inspiring individual =) 

damn i better get myself together, else i'll fade into irrelevancy! =P

in seriousness, i love the composition and the rendering of the gnarled wood is really good along with the use of the palette. It also goes without saying i'm a fan of the subject matter =)

Thank you so much, MIERDINSKY! 

Inspiring artistic vision! 

Thanks, shm31

Beautiful palette and atmosphere

Thank you, Umbohr! First time using colors based on value and not necessarily on hue. I enjoyed working with the pallete this way =) 

Very beautiful scene , and great use of the palette

Ah, my bad. You utilised them very well however.

Thank you, Clovvach! I'll try to go for a more ambitious piece next year =) 

Wish I could come up with these colors myself! This palette by Qirlfriend is a pretty one indeed =) 

This is so sweet! :) It's so simple but I love the vibe

Great colours!

Thanks, Space-AgeWrangler! Glad how it turned out myself =) 

Really nice work on the branch, love how it twists around!

I'm glad you like it! Hope you had a good Christmas and wish you a happy new year =) 

OH MY GOD!!! This is so beautiful and cute! I also very like the choice of palette on this one, it feels like upcoming spring!  Birdies are insanely cute and nice (by the way, great tit is one of my favourite species)!!! Thank you very much, n0mzat, your present is AMAZING! 

Thanks! Gotta do something bigger and more ambitious next time. Some people really went all out this year, huh? Gotta keep it up =D

I love this so much  Beautifully done!
