Church Lake Cottage

A commission I did for a friend based on a photo she took of a cottage on Church Lake. I enjoyed the challenge of the reflection in the water. It had to mirror the scene, and yet I didn't want it to look too identical. That would be monotonous and boring. I used a wall patching scraper for a lot of the reflection to get a more blended feel to it with softer edges, then went over it in spots with thicker paint to add interest.
