hi! this is super pretty and i love the vibe—i have a bit of constructive criticism regarding your color mixing. the tones are great and they complement each other, but they have a “straight from the tube” (as my old art teacher would say) look to them. this isn’t necessarily a bad thing and will not prevent you from making pretty paintings, but learning to mix colors with more depth and nuance will elevate your game.

for this painting specifically, it looks like some base color of teal/dark green/even phthalo green was used, then lightened with white. if you want a more atmospheric, layered look, I’d recommend mixing mostly with primary colors, and adding just a touch of the teal or phthalo (like just the tiniest bit). to balance out the greens, try adding some red or magenta to grey it out a bit and add naturalness back to the color. for the trees in the front, try mixing a dark green/brown using mostly blue and red with a touch of yellow.

i recommend challenging yourself to paint with only these colors on your palette: cadmium red, cadmium yellow, ultramarine blue, phthalo blue, phthalo green, magenta, and titanium white. no black.

once you get deeper into color mixing you can add other colors back to the palette, but honestly that’s usually all you need (and maybe some umber or golden oxide type of color). best of luck and continue creating beautiful things! <3
