A dramatic headline for a dramatic start to this painting which I am liking. When I was in the area taking photos there was a reasonable level of tonal drama but it was restricted to whites and greys in the sky. I have upped the colour saturation as per the previous painting and I am liking how things are looking with these changes. The patterns in the hills are present as fields and heather but I am trying to increase the contrasts and simplify areas across the painting.
