Countryside Valley

A river winds through a colonial valley village, where laundry hangs on a line and cows wander outside their pen.

Late in the evening, Designsb pitched a bolder idea for the bottom corner. It meant less river and more bank, with a path, rocks and flowers. Then came second thoughts about straying from the plan, and the idea was dropped. Anza--c answered by sharing their own discarded first sketch, proof that plans change. Reassured, Designsb went ahead. The river alone took thousands of pixels, and the mossy foreground now pulls the whole valley into depth.
