Undiscovered

My obsession with painting mountains continues. After feedback about paying too much attention to detail in the first two digital paintings I've submitted, I thought I'd try out a speed painting to work on breaking this habit. I set myself a target of 2 hours and not a minute more - 30 minutes working on the scene (shapes, colours and value) then 90 minutes to refine it as best as I could. This is the end result.

Any suggestions, feedback or advice is very gratefully received and extremely helpful
