Excellent, Damien. The foreground adds to the drama of the mountain ridge without competing with it.

Excellent work - the massiveness is impressive.

Thanks Tony and Sharron. It's a beautiful mountain from every angle.

Warm verses cool, and quite a mood set here......and the violets throughout the painting repeated.......nice!!

Thanks Thomas. A limited palette had to be boosted a bit with cobalt blue and burnt sienna. Nature had it all sorted out for the most part.
