I started this sketch last Thursday but did not have enough time to finish it. It is very similar to the Napa Vineyard sketch that I posted that day. That sketch, though, had a disconnect between the mountains and vines, it was not really clear which was the focus. Before leaving on Thursday I sketched a new composition that eliminated the middle ground and minimized the mountains. Then today I painted it using the first sketch as a reference for colors. I am not sure at this point which works best but since I am home in San Diego, figuring it out will have to wait until I go back to Napa Valley again.
