Hwy 285 From Mt Falcon Park. 9x12 oil

I was hoping for a little snow when we went up to paint at Mt Falcon Park but it was just a little cold in the morning. Lots of sun, than goodness, and a beautiful day. This felt like a very small painting since the last couple of pieces have been 18x24 and 24x30. Just love working at that scale. Snow is expected later this week so I will keep my cold gear handy. This coming Saturday, the first day of the new year, we will go and paint at Chatfield State Park. It should be a lot of fun.  

Road to Red Rocks painted at Mathews/Winters park. A record day for December because it reached 70 degrees in the city and the next day it was supposed to snow, well just an inch or so but still a big change. Actually the snow never really showed up. It is a busy season with lot of things to take care of.

Merry Christmas

Today in Morrison, it was on the cold side but the sun was shining and I had long johns :-)

Not many showed up, just Ted, me and Bob. There is a lot to paint in this little spot. The rocks were sun lit but I didn't get the effect I wanted.

After painting pastels in the morning, Norbert showed me a spot I had not been to before. Mt Galbraith. Nice place. I will have to put in on the PAAC list of places to go. It is close to White Ranch by Golden. The Atmosphere here is way cool. No pun intended. 

CO Railroad Museum paint out with the Pastel Society of CO, what a nice time. Have'nt painted in pastels in a while so it was really fun. A little cold on the finger tips but really fun. I gotta do some more.
