Mountains/knifeworks were a lot harder than I thought they would be. And even though this painting only really uses two colors (titanium white and blue/brown mix) I had a lot of, shall we say, learning moments on the palette. Glad I chose this one because a 10+ color painting would’ve probably been mixing mud lol.
Don't sell yourself short on the colors, learning values (which monochrome forces) is much less intuitive than learning colors! You did great.
I don't particularly like the composition on "shades of gray" so I'm glad you took some liberties with it, but I do think you've left room for a nice little cabin over there still 😉

Any tips or criticisms are greatly appreciated!
