The house on the mountain - without the house

Thinking I need to zoom in on one element at a time, so I dropped the mountain and the house. But still struggling with that big hill! Here I mixed too many darks (Carbazole Violet, Van Dyck Brown, Neutral Tint, Lavender?) and it looks like a big cow pat that landed in the middle of the field!! And nothing is flowing! Need to start practising juicy watercolours again!!


And for this one, I managed to keep a light touch, but then I lifted paint and I have this big smudge in the middle, and this weird cross pattern is emerging, instead of the lovely curves that I was trying to achieve but clearly forgot once I had the paintbrush in hand! Back to the drawing board!
