12x9. I wasn't able to finish this in one session. The top half is done on location. The Palm tree was finished studio. This is my second time to paint this scene.

Wow, Charles, Thank you so much for your such detailed comment. I just noticed now regarding the value on the second section. I will corrected it. And also soften the palm leaves you mentioned. Thank you again!

Correction, regarding the tower, I meant to say second section...RIGHT side not the left side.

Wonderful image.  I appreciate the way your have express light and used cool blues and warm pinks.  Simple but dramatic sky and believable trees.   A couple of observations:  Purely for composition, I would extend the branches of the left-most palm tree further to the left and curve them downward.  Also soften the hard dark curve on the right side of that palm so its leaves morph into the palm tree to its right.  In the tower, second section from bottom left side, the value is lighter than the values above and to the left, implying more light on that section.  Was that what you intended?
