Although I already pronounced this painting finished a few days ago, my daughter recently suggested adding some yellow or orange to balance all the purple tones. I knew she was right, so today I mixed up some very pale yellow to use as highlights (to suggest sunlight on the mountains) and some pale orange (nearly pink) to suggest the red earth of Colorado. I think the colors are more balanced now, and I think the painting was improved by the suggestion.
