Good feeling of a peaceful setting. I do have a few comments. I like the red boats, but to connect them more to the painting, some vibrant strokes of green in the boats would connect them to the greens around them. The one thick dark stick on the left side of the boats seems to be distracting me from the boats because of the dark value of the stick against the lighter value of the water. Maybe move this stick somewhere behind the boats or make it part of a grouping of sticks to bring the eye back into the painting from the left. I really like how you added the red throughout your painting, and is so doing, you integrated this color throughout. With a little green added in strong complementary accents within the boats themselves, the connection would be complete. Thanks for sharing this lovely painting with us. Keep painting!

They are too much red, a little agressive I feel. But this is a matter of taste and does not demerit the paint work which I quite admire.
