Mt. Sopris


Oil on panel, 6"x8"

This view of Mt. Sopris is from the Skyline Ranch in Carbondale, Colorado. I painted plein air there in June during a workshop with George Strickland.

"Trees and Mt. Sopris" 20 minute plein air


oil on panel, 6"x8"

This is another of those 20 minute plein air paintings from the George Strickland workshop in Carbondale, Colorado. It is very difficult to paint anything remotely recognizable in 2o minutes. These exercises force you to see the big picture very quickly and to lay color down and leave it alone.

"Mt. Sopris - Plein Air"


Oil on panel, 11"x14"
I think we took a couple hours when I painted this scene en plein air of Mt. Sopris from the Skyline Ranch in Carbondale, Colorado.
