This is 8×8″, using a photo taken last spring somewhere on the BLM land above our house. Some people call it Case Mountain because it is below Case Mountain (mostly privately owned and gated closed). Some people call it Salt Creek because Salt Creek runs through. We call it BLM, because it is managed by the Bureau of Land Management. It used to be relatively unknown, and then along came The Google and everyone’s need to announce everything to the entire world. (STOP IT!)
Would you believe me if I told you that it will look better when dry and scanned, and even better in person? Yeppers, it’s true.

I love seeing the initial draft, and then the final painting. Such a whopping but beautiful difference!
Thank you, Sharon! I am finally getting used to the reality that all oil paintings look terrible at first. (Only took 17 years)
