40 x 30 Acrylic “Rockies on Fire”
After a recent trip to Colorado this painting just sort of happened as an impression of the heat and fire that was all over the mountains. Fires were springing up from North of Denver to Pueblo. I try to paint abstract landscapes without a plan but just evolve the colors and shapes in a powerful and organic fashion. I feel this painting does portray the dry heat and the spreading fires of the summer of 2012 in Colorado.
Without a doubt this captures the raw power of this summer’s fire in one of my favorite parts of the world.
