Create some clouds and soft light.

Middle ground:
Distant objects: Blue, orange, and black
Brush: Filbert brush

Foreground:
Closer Trees, Mars black and magenta
Round brush in creating the tree trunks.
Put some highlights of blue, white, and some yellow.

For the lake, the same colors as the sky, to stand out the lake I put some reflection on it. Specially the light source should be emphasized. I used a flat brush for this part.

Wooden pathway: Burnt sienna, magenta and black. I used a flat brush and for the sharp line a liner brush.

For extra details, I put water lines, water ripples, and also tree limbs.

This is the finished art.
