Rockies in June


5" x 7" oil on stretched canvas

This was painted from a photo taken on my daughter's birthday trip. It's the smallest painting with this much detail I have ever attempted. I have only done one other majestic mountain view before and it was for the set of Molly Brown at the Longmont Theatre Company. I remember it being about 16' high by 12' long, and I had to do one on either side of the stage. I resorted to using rollers with very long extension poles; the paint trays were on the floor, I was 9' up a 15' ladder swinging the extension poles up and down for days, what a person gets talked into just to "do that art.thing".
