- Soften the edges with subtle, feathered strokes for a glowing effect.
Mountains and Distant Hills:
- Mix deep purples and blues for the mountains in the background.
- Use horizontal strokes to depict the layered effect of distant hills.
Water Reflection:

- Use long, smooth strokes horizontally across the water.

Foreground Rocks:

- Utilize a combination of short, choppy strokes for texture, and longer curves to highlight the rock contours.
- Add orange highlights for depth and realism.
Details and Highlights:
- Add subtle highlights with yellows and light browns on the rocks to build depth.
- Use a finer brush for detailing patterns and shadows on the rocks and water.
- Work on adjusting contrast for a more dynamic finish.
