If anything, perhaps the house and sky colors are too similar. Karadeniz Jan 2021 #9

If you do, maybe something in the upper right corner? A dark cloud that casts a shadow and adds some ambiguity in mood? Maybe just a more intense blue in part of the sky?

I use water colors and ink pen a lot and I sometimes overdo it. I have found that if I walk away from something or put it away for a month, then review it later, it is much better than I thought originally. Perceived "imperfections" at the time of creation are assets in 2 weeks.

I think this is really, really good. Frame and hang it.

Thanks for sharing.

Maybe add a little more contrast in the sky. But otherwise, I wouldn't change a thing.

more shades of green? I would darken the sky a little bit, but this is your work not mine, and it is as it should be. So keep up the good work!
