'Lakeshore Drive' - Yellowstone

-

Late summer afternoon on the shores of the high-elevation Lake Yellowstone.. typical scene while on a short stroll from the historic Lake Hotel to the quaint Yellowstone Store for an ice cream.  This was one of my favorite things to do.. beautiful colors and a treat at the end!

'Hite Overlook'

-
Image
First time painting on a cradled wood panel .. gessoed white .. then a layer of magenta acrylic.  I like the wood surface .. not as slick as I thought it might be. From an overlook along the highway  .. northern end of Lake Powell in Utah .. The focus of this piece is on the abstract patterns made by the rock formations that used to be covered by the lake.  Hite was a busy marina for houseboats and fisherman .. no more.  This scene is from when there was still some lake water .. but because of persistent droughts in the Southwest .. only the ancient Colorado River flows by now I might paint a pink glaze over the finished piece like this earlier version .. I like it :) 16x16   oil on wood panel natural maple frame Gallery 24 - Torrey Utah

 Remembering my time at Dead Horse State Park .. smoldering red sunset .. last glow over an immense landscape.  This was an experiment to see if I could accomplish a tonal painting .. colors that are similar and close in values .. using restraint. Plus I wanted to use some of my many red and violet oils without doing flowers ..the usual way to use lots of reds. Here is my impression from that famous viewpoint ..  acquire at Gallery 24 - Torrey Utah
