I love the way the shadows and light bring out the rock forms on Cascade Peak.
ELK CLOSE UP
I'm not really a wildlife painter, yet I feel pretty good about how this bull elk turned out.

The middle section of Squaw Peak.
SQUAW PEAK
THis looks so real, it's like you can walk right through it! Pick any door.

PAINTING UP A STORM
I didn't get to the mural project until 10 a.m. this morning, because I had an important matter to take care of. In spite of it all, I accomplished quite a lot. You would think I spent days modeling with paint in the area I worked in. One of the supervisors over the project said he really liked how it was looking. Tomorrow, I plan to move on to Cascade and Y Mountains. Then I hope to work the foreground before the weeks end. The idea is to paint everything so it looks like most of it is in shadow, except the upper portion of the mountains will have the vibrant reflected light from the sun as it is setting in the western sky. The mood is in the twilight time of the evening during the last few minutes of intense evening light. Let's see if I can keep up the pace I set today as I work on the rest of the mural over the next few days.
