From Sentinel Pass


















Acrylic, 30 x40 inches

I'd like to say I've been there, but painting this is  about as close as I'm going to get to this magnificent place! When I get 'lost' in my painting it's almost as if I'm there. I painted this from a photo and although I tried to stay true to the scene...I took some liberties with my color palette.

What a beautiful painting, this really takes me back and brings up memories of the past.
In 1970 a friend talked me into hiking with him from Lake Louise to Moraine Lake. We went over Sentinel Pass, and I tore my running shoes to shreds climbing up the scree.
