This 50x50 painting has been a challenge. In fact there have been three major revisions of the land...I initially painted some hills from eastern Oregon, and then decided the hills and sky did not go together...so then a desert landscape...and again there was a disconnect. I went back to the original photo reference and finally realized that I had another photo with similar clouds taken just a few weeks ago when we were in the Owyhee State Park area...so this is an all new painting!
