Work in progress

I'm struggling with a watercolour I've been working on for the last few weeks. It's a view towards the hills behind Saint André de Roquelongue, on a misty morning in May. What I want to capture is the quiet fog with the promise of a warm day, but any wet-in-wet attempts I've made so far have been poor. So I tried a different set of colours and painted wet on dry, but my colours are too blocky and the effect is autumnal - not what I want. So I might try different colours with Photoshop first, rather than waste more paper! I'll keep you posted.
