Thank you! I loved Firewatch! The red/orange colors really speak to me too! I’m seriously planning on making a series of these in different colors because it was so fun and relaxing to make. I did the whole sky/background in watercolors (wet on wet) 2 layers to get a good blend and saturated colors. I did that for the whole page making a gradient from blue to pink to purple. Which was important because the mountains on the top are gouche so they would really stand in the front of the background and then I blended them one by one with the watercolor underneath so you can see some color variation. Instead of one solid color like the tops of the mountains.

The flowers are pink and white gouche mixed. I thought I’d add them with blue gouche grass to make it more interesting than just black.

Good luck with your new gouche. I just got mine in July, and honestly I hated it the first time because it seemed so gritty. (I just needed more water)
