      thank you both for your comments.
      I feel more motivated to continue! 🙂

      good point about too small cabin and one more face!
      I have added a few more details and very slight new mountain faces for now...what do you think?

      I will be pointing it on a big piece of wooden canvas (120/80cm), so really need to get a good draft before i start...

      Therefore I am hoping for more support 🙂

        @aska it's coming together!

        Sorry, I might be totally blind, but where are the 'very slight new mountain faces'?

        The goat is a detail you might not need -- I find that it draws my eye away from the faces and cabin.

        Really cool that this will be painted on wood! Please show us how it turns out!

          @Melissa-Bailey-0 thank you! I am still not sure about other faces. I started painting today. I will figure it out on the way... I am so inpatient that I decided to start painting before completing the draft in 100%...;-)

              @aska Looking beautiful! Love seeing your traditional work!

              Question for you: where is the intended focal point in this piece?

                  @Melissa-Bailey-0 Thank u! 🙂 it will be the house once I finish it. I will draw a delicate light in the windows. DO you think it will be a good focal point?

                    @Asyas_illos thank you! It's only this year that I started painting traditionally on canvas. Apart from smelly paints, I find it more relaxing than digital art. I gues its good to switch between the two forms. I live variety 🙂

                        @aska absolutely! The way that the painting is composed, it makes sense that the house would be the focal point.
