Transcript

I have decided to add a few more highlights, as you can see, tabs here and there. Again not overdoing it. But these, these can suggest rocks and these highlights also stand out against the dark areas. But again, you've got to be careful that you don't go and overdo it but just sufficient just to break up there. And as you can see bringing some down into that middle distance, especially strong highlights really work nicely against deeper tones, deeper colors. Now coming down right into the foreground, the warm highlights there.

You can dump them here in there. But again, don't overdo them. You see how it just breaks and adds a little bit of interest with those highlights, especially in the foreground area. Now I'm adding tips of crimson to this blue and going to now add this over some of the deeper shadow area right down in the foreground. And as you can see this cool gray blue adds a nice contrast. To the shadow area, and suggests different textures on the surface, but it really adds a good complement.

And because it breaks up the ground area, it just adds a little bit more interest. And now taking some white into this mixture for one final highlight, which I'm going to place right down in the foreground here, and the important thing is not to go over it twice, put it on, let it come off the knife, and I've just broken a couple of the edges there. But it's really important to leave that highlight right in the center so it looks really fresh and spontaneous. And one final touch, ensure that you sign your name because it signifies that your painting is now complete.
