Very simple: just a mix between a paint in my livingroom and a postcard on my desk.

I tried to render cicadas, but I did not succeed..
Nicely undulating and lovely vegetation.
The foreground is realistic ;the background is because of the spherical hills a little like more from kind of a Shrek film , but i like Shrek !
This looks definitely very nice , GioMez :)
I have seen hills like this. Alluvial deposits I believe. Very nice work.
I really love your style GioMez. The clouds in particular are always a stand-out. Lately the vegetation work has also been great. In this case I think there could be a bit more fine tuning, but it's already a nice image. The foreground vegetation is, as I said, quite good, lots of good variety. I do agree that the background hills are perhaps a bit too smooth and rounded or "perfect", but it could be a stylistic choice and works well enough not to change if that's the case. The background field with rolls hay and the dark parts of the trees look a bit dark overall, with the sky also almost a bit overexposed, so the overall balance of the image is maybe a bit off. Also the hay bails seem a bit bright or shiny, maybe too much specular?
Great work overall though.

the left background fits very well to the Toscana... the field in the foreground looks more Germany - like ???!!
Nice use of lighting.
