Last light catching the top of the mountain range.  Moments like this last just seconds, but can burn into your memory for a lifetime.  Oil on linen on a 1.5 inch deep canvas with clean painted edges.

Glowing vibrant skies have been the subject I'm most drawn to in this body of work.  This piece continues my exploration of this subject, juxtaposing purple clouds against an orange sky.  I integrated water into the foreground largely so that I could reflect the sun and balance out the composition.  Done from memory, this piece was completed over a number of painting sessions as the image slowly emerged from the canvas.
