My First Concept Board

Here it is in all of it's glory.

Bottom center is a little brush up to decide color - so glad I did that!  I erased a lot, including a lot of red, giving the little painting a pink hue in the middle.  I'm planning on the original being lots of browns and dusty teals with the tiniest hints of red in the trim on the little house.

The board has lots of different views of the house, some clippings from some of the plants in the picture and the color study.  The next move will be to sketch it all out onto water color paper, which I'll probably have done over a few days - then painting!  I'm looking forward to this piece being very detailed and having some pop to it... we'll see what happens, but I've already learned a bit just in my color study and learning is the goal so I'm headed in the right direction!

Here's my set up:
