Watercolors- Landscapes from Class, pt. 2- mid-March versus early April

Here's the second landscape I worked on.  I'm not quite sure why it's so orange, but that's the way the original is.  Don't know who the painter is.






Here's my first attempt, from a few weeks ago-





Here's my second attempt, from early April-


I can't quite seem to get myself to go "full orange" the way this original artist is.  I included a Cad Red Light on my palette the second time, and I even used it when mixing and painting, but I keep on muting the colors.  The sketch seems more accurate and the value of the mountain better in the new sketch, but if I do it again, I'll push the yellows and oranges in the foreground more.
