LJ and NJ

I’ve been working kind of all over the place past week on this painting.  I gave the sky another layer.  Also touched up the mountains.  I did another layer for the reflection of the mountain in the water, but now need to make it look like a reflection. The field of grass is still a work in progress, so i’ll Try to make more progress on it this week.  The shoreline got some attention, with attempts at making stuff look more three-dimensional.  All that said, my real fun came in getting ready to do the underwater substrate, pebbles and small rocks.  And there are a LOT of very small rocks!  I’ve not painted nearly enough.  But with what’s there, you can perhaps imagine how it will look when i paint the “water” above.  This will be via a glaze , or two, or three — we’ll see!
