Secluded _ A Landscape

6"x8"
watercolor 
I finally got around to painting a landscape! I liked the way this tree stands alone in this mostly grassy landscape.I know it could have been better, but landscapes are a bit intimidating to me- so I think its an 'alright' kind of effort.Hope you all had a great weekend.
