Went for an old postcard colors look with this one. My computer is still screwing up and scratched this image for me once. I’d saved it and when I opened it the next day one of the layers was gone and a primary layer was 3/4 covered over with what looked like an overlay of black as if done in absolutely uniform horizontal strokes of one of the larger wet media brushes. So it was not completely saturated but was still ruined. Don’t know what in the world happened except but apparently something fouled when I was saving it. Fortunately I didn’t have to start completely over again. The palms and wall and cactus were intact on a couple of other layers, but the sky and part of the evergreens had been ruined and the ground was gone.

My reference pic.
