Brandon, can you tell me which order and which colors you used throughout the painting? Tnx

[@carolineattaway2414]

Example - what did you mix to (for example) the purple?

[@paintingwithbrandon-BBart]

I started with my lightest values of blue in the distance, which was a mixture of phtalo blue and white, with just a hint of red to gray it/purple it out some. As I move forward on each layer of mountain, I used the same mix I started with but added more red to get a darker purple value and less white each time so the saturation got higher as I move forward on the canvas.
