I had fun making this mountain scene, I've watched the video and played with the layers of color, I used a white posca marker to highlight the mountain tops and trees, stamped the birds and the French sentiment The obstacles become surmountable I hope this is a good translation...

Definitely, this is a great translation, Anita, and what a wonderful piece of artwork, WOW!!! I was first drawn in by the colors that you used, I especially love the colors of your sky, those yellows, oranges, and reds that look so realistic and so very beautiful!!! Then, I noticed how you used that white marker (I haven't heard of this type before, but clearly you used it to its fullest advantage, it's wonderful here!) was what I noticed next, how you brought out details on the mountains especially. It may have felt like many obstacles for you, but it just looks like some wonderful artwork, which is what I always see when I see your work, Anita. You are such a great example to me! I especially admire how varied your work is, you have such ease and expertise using so many different techniques and styles and so many types of products. This artwork really knocked my socks off, as the saying goes, I had to put it into my favorites so that I will be able to see it again and again.

I like the colors of your mountains and they look snow-capped. Also, love the birds you added making it all look so realistic. Good work, Anita. So glad you joined us this week.

Gorgeous, intense colors both in the sky and your mountains. I keep forgetting they'll dry lighter and I think I add TOO much water at the beginning. The flock of bird add a beautiful touch of realism and the white marker add lovely detail - making every object feel like it was kissed by a gentle snowfall.

Beautiful sky with the added birds to give life to your painting! I like your added trees also and the way you formed your mountains so it appears there is snow at the tops of them!
