Watercolor Horse in a Mountain Valley

An impressionistic watercolor scene of a horse in a mountain valley. A chestnut horse stands by a winding, crystal-clear stream, gentle steam of mist rising from the water. The valley is framed by evergreen forests and distant, snow-dusted peaks under a pale morning sky. Use loose washes, soft edges, and color bleeds typical of watercolor on textured cold-press paper, with wet-on-wet blending for the atmospheric mist and reflections. Palette emphasizes cool greens and blues for the valley, lavender and purple shadows, and warm ochre and sienna highlights on the horse and sunlit stones. Include delicate wildflowers along the riverbank and subtle granulation in the paint to convey depth. Composition from a slightly elevated eye level, capturing serenity and the tranquil, painterly mood of nature.
