Rocky Mountain Landscape

This recently completed landscape measures

8" x 18", oil on canvas. There are some places

that just inspire some type of artist expression.

Being a wildlife artist, it was difficult not putting in at least some elk, deer or bear. I think the location of this scene needed the silence.

I named this painting "Rocky Mountain Serenity". There are few visitors to the park in October. The weather is generally unpredictable. There was a snow storm on it's way during this visit. I loved having few

people around. I felt a sense of wilderness without them.
