More small sketches

I've been working on some ideas for this vintage photo below of my Mom and sister Martha in Arizona at a place called Hole In The Rock around the 1940's.  So love how they dressed to go climbing on rocks!  Anyway the first sketch on the left is gouache using two colors, ultramarine blue and burnt sienna with white.  The gouache was a little disappointing but it's an inexpensive set bought for experimenting a few years ago.  The second sketch I tried for a more Art Pop look using bright acrylic colors.  Both are painted on Canva-Paper by Canson.  So two sketches and still searching as both are missing the mark.  There are interesting things about both that may be incorporated into a finished piece. ?
