After experimenting with my colours I found a blue grey to use as my mountain base. I worked in smaller sections and painted the mountain base colour then used the palette knife to work in white paint for the snow. By dragging the white paint I could block in larger snow fields or smear the white with the mountain base colour to mix the two, creating the illusion of rocks and ridges on the mountains. I was much happier with this technique. The photos here show the results of the mountains. The foreground hills will be the subject of a future post.
