Great class Brigitte!  Awesome that you not only have multiple ideas for the painting, but that you demonstrate each way as well.  I also love that you demonstrate using brush, palette knife and/or sponge.  I really feel like this could be a vista from one of the many beautiful vineyards in Willamette Valley on the drive to the coast, so that is how I chose to paint mine and decided to utilize the underpainting color.   I need to find a good photo I have taken of Mt. Hood and give that a shot some day.  Great class that I thoroughly enjoyed.  Feedback is always welcome!  :):) Update: The next day, I didn't think my flowers popped enough so added a better red to the poppies for more umpf! :)
