Good for you!
Congrats Patty,
I like the full space, but there right side needs to be pulled in for better balance. I really like the environmental aspect and the spaciousness. I think making the figures subservient to the landscape makes for a more interesting painting. Hey, but that's just me.
I would also move the horizon up slightly, so the boy's head isn't touching. I'd also make sure the horizon was parallel to the top and bottom of the painting. Do lot's of small color and value studies so that when you begin the actual painting you'll have resolved all your problems. I know you'll do a great job.
