I do like what you have done with this - suggestion of the figures in the foreground adds to the interest. Did you use acrylic paste to get all those textures?

Just stunning Shirley

No, David, I just use the paint thickly, and a palette knife, and sometimes a brush.

Nicely painted and the textured surfaces work well , the cloud formation against the rocks and the two figures in diminutive form , very nice work Shirley!

Reworking with limited palette and palette knife. Trying to understand what I can do.
