The first stage was to print a blue green for the hillside areas below the crags, followed by a darker blue grey to form the base colour of the shadow areas of the cliff. Then a brighter green for the foreground field and trees. Looking at the print at this stage I was worried that this had the effect of pushing the cliff too far back. However, I think that once the final dark tones are introduced to the crag and foreground they should pull the whole image back together. Hopefully!
I think another three colours should see it complete. Which will be two more than the seven I originally planned on.

Chortling away over here... "I think three more colors, two more than originally planned..." Printmaker after my own heart.
It might be four more colours yet...
