Stewart Cascade

I am sitting in my living room looking at a 40 x 30 oil painting of Stewart Cascade. I painted it about two years ago. It was made when I was using only a palette knife to paint with (no brushes). The design is from a plein air painting I did on location the summer of 2007. Rhonda and I love the little hike from Aspen grove over to Stewart Cascade. It is only a couple of short miles, with the chance of seeing wildlife,wildflowers and the occasional Sundance celebrity. We have been hiking and cross country skiing in the area for many years. Both of us hiked this trail while we were high school students in Orem High schools Unified Studies course. I think it is one of our favorite spots. I have had this sweet palette knife work on my wall for nearly a year now and I have an itch to put up something new , a painting from another one of my favorite spots . Maybe One of my recent Arches paintings, several of them would fit the frame or perhaps something new and very blue from Cozumel (since I am rhyming only time will tell). check Ebay to see what small studio or plein air paintings I have for sale there this week. If you are interested in giving this Stewart Cascade painting a home contact me via e-mail.
