Reflections – Done

Reflections – 24 x 24 – Acrylic on Wood – Reserved for Mayberry Fine Art Reflections is now finished.

Reflections – WIP 7

Reflections – 24 x 24 – Acrylic on Wood – Reserved for Mayberry Fine Art Ooh I’m nearly done! I have completed all the darker reflections and just have to finish up the lighter bits of the lake.
