Mountain Peaks

Mountain Peaks

Oil on wood panel.
I love looking out and seeing the high peaks of the Rocky Mountains, still covered in snow, even though it is sunny and in the 80s here just a few miles away. The mountains of Colorado got huge amounts of snow this winter. That inspired me to do take out my trusty palette knife and do this piece.

There is a glass walkway bridge from the old wing of the Denver Art Museum to the new wing. It gives a wonderful view of the sidewalk below. (Do a search for the museum and you will see it.) In early April, I went to the, "Inspiring Impressionism," exhibit there. These two women were walking in the brilliant Colorado sunshine, and I was struck by the way their shadows danced, as they walked along. They are walking down a slight incline next to the old wing of the museum.
Those who are very observant may look at the building and think the perspective is not right. Part of the problem is that the women are walking downhill, so the bottom of the building is sloping at the same angle, while the windows remain parallel with the floor inside the building, so it makes for an unusual angle.
