This piece is part of an emerging series exploring the intersection of landscape art and abstraction, with a colorist bent. It is linen stretched on 1.5inch deep stretchers. I can be hung unframed (edges are painted), or it looks great in a minimalist floater frame.  It is priced as unframed.

This is from a backpacking trip in the high sierras.  I hiked in a couple of hours with my painting gear to this gorgeous lake, and spent the day trying to capture a bit of my feeling of awe being out there. Oil on linen mounted on board.
