Weather cooperating, autumn in Montana can be so beautiful. This was one of those years. We had bright yellow leaves on the aspen trees here until Sunday morning, when this storm hammered us, the temperature dropping 80 degrees in a few days time! -12 in the early morning is not for sissies!
But I digress. This was a plein air piece, completed for the most part on a Montana Painters Alliance paint out in the Fort Benton, MT. area in early October. I finished the painting in the studio. It is now on it’s way to the Dana Gallery in Missoula, MT. for their Christmas Show. Happy Holidays everyone!
In Full Splendor” is an oil, 11 x 14.
As beautiful as the day was!!
I feel warmer just looking at it…..
