Let successive mountain ranges recede from a dark, textured ridge at the lower right toward barely visible pale peaks on the left horizon. Use substantial unpainted space to suggest valley fog and atmospheric silence. Vary brushwork between broad diluted washes, broken dry strokes, and a few controlled edges describing rocky summits. Keep the mountains geographically legible rather than abstract symbols, with subtle forest marks on the nearest slope. The composition should feel asymmetrical and contemplative, using only charcoal-black ink, soft gray, and the natural paper tone.
