16” x 20” textured acrylic painting on canvas panel

While the morning might have been clear painting at the Alpine Garden, the afternoon was a whole different story. Oh the joys and challenges of plein air painting! Below you can see the fog that would constantly creep in every 5 minutes. Luckily, it would also move out as often. But, that basically meant I had to commit the scene to memory in order to keep painting in-between those rolling clouds filling the valley. Truly fascinating to watch. And, then when the fog would dissipate, I'd be greeted by this incredibly beautiful view with magical light kissing the landscape. Pure heaven!
