Defining the Painting

From sketch to illustration

I'm really not sure about the rock's colors so I switched the yellows toward the reds. I have difficulty with my Bedouin cloths, so I started to color pick more on my photo ref and trying to bring in more details. The horse still feels to desaturated. Also, I'm totally stealing Jean-Leon Gerome character's hat... it's too cool. I want that hat on my character's head!!
