Autumn Mountain Reflections

My painting for today was an autumn scene. I still have trouble with mountains. I'm not sure why... just some techniques are hard for me. My brain tells my hands to do one thing and my hands don't follow directions well. I'm happy with the result, but it's not what my mind was trying to convey.

This is a 12x16 stretched canvas with the painting wrapping around the edges. Most was done with brushes and a bit of knife work on the mountains, tree trunks, and water ripples. Autumn is my favorite time of year. We don't have mountains this large where I live. But I've been to Colorado with my dad and I really enjoyed the scenery out there.
