The color choices are very appealing here.
I'm glad you opened it out... made it a broader view.
That expansion really adds a lot to this one.

I'll look forward to seeing what you do with this Chashio.

Thank you J. and Mouse! I'm having a ton of fun with this one [well, all of these sketches, actually] and trying some new things so I'm really glad for your comments and feedback. Very much appreciated.

On the composition: I kept adding another bit and another bit, etc to the right edge of the canvas and slapping the water color around until i got that rough composition of the rocks/sea, then added some more on the bottom to make the final dimensions 12x18 [which is about as large as I can print on my new printer ].

For the colors, I am taking inspiration from a bunch of landscape paintings, illustrations and aerial photos.

I'm quite pleased with how this one is coming out.
