Colorado High Rise_8 x 6 oil

"Colorado High Rise" study__8 x 6 oil on linen___$150

It's the time of year where the clouds build over the mountains each day. Sometimes it rains, and sometimes the rains are on the other side of the mountain, but the build up is always spectacular. The cold rain I painted a couple days ago sparked a couple of small forest fires near here, but it's been wet enough that the rangers don't seem worried, and are letting the burns clear out some under-brush...We went to Taos this morning. I had a nice visit with Anita at Act I Gallery, and brought her a couple of new works...then I got to spend an hour at Artisan, my very favorite art supply store.
