I forgot to photograph this painting the 2 times I worked on it before this - sorry!
First I sketched it in, much like I did the others. The second time I added the darks, especially the brown that the the kneeling person is wearing. But it wasn't very dark. So, I got the notion to lighten the sky to make the darks darker. It worked. Then I brought some of the extra sky paint onto Christ's robe. The distant mountain needed to be more like the sky, so I added some blue to it and spread some of the extra blue around the bottom too, for balance.
Next time, the mountain needs to be even lighter.
