New Concept Landscape Painting of a river flowing through a canyon...  Laying out my ideas in Krita...  Digital Ink and Pencil. Shape fill tools, airbrush and stamp brushes....  Going to be concentrating mostly on rock work in this painting... I like to do interesting rock shapes....  Trees are easy... I was inspired by a recent documentary of travelling through the USA... 
After several layers of work I am just building shapes and details in the rocks... Background Work and blending the water.. Also refining the trees more...
Still refining and working on reflections and shadows more....
Almost finished here... I have used Corel Paintshop Pro to enhance Vibrancy of color, Brightness, Contrast, Saturation... Still needs more Blending... Happy with all the rock detail.. That what takes the most work....
"Carving A Path" Finished... I think... I may some subtle improvements later... I think I might add a Bird Or Two Flying... I have some good Stamp Brushes for those...
Looks really good. the light and reflections,
Interesting to watch the progress.  I'd imagined you'd work from a more detailed drawing at the start.  Not so.  Watching the distant mountains develop also of great interest.
