Some good and some bad on this painting. Lets start with the good.
I was gonna do a dark sky, or at least darker, but when I saw how this one turned out after only one layer of paint, I liked it so much I stopped. And knowing what the sky looks like in Zion most of the time, there are no clouds anyway, so the sky seems about right. The next thing that is really good, I think, are the mountains in the background. They really do look like they are far away. Just enough detail so you can see a few crevasses in the rocks, but not too much detail that its out of place. I really like them.
Now for the not so good. I don't think i got quite the right shape of this hill. It is, in general, dome-ish, which I got, but somehow its not quite right. I might go back and see if I cant make the far side of the path fall off just a bit, maybe that will help it look like it is rounder.
I might go back and pencil in some chains like on the real pathway, but I don't have time to do it today, but wanted to get this picture up. If I make changes, I'll repost. Hope you all enjoy.
