Estes Park Pine

“Estes Park Pine” 14”x11” Oil on hardboard panel, painted April 2024

Karen and I visited Estes Park for her birthday in 2023. There was enough snow to close the road to Rocky Mt National Park but we could drive as far as the entrance. It was a bit foggy higher up but that just added to the beauty and mystic of the distant mountains. This one particularly large pine in the right center of the painting caught my eye. My painting doesn’t do it justice, but it reminds me of that awesome trip.
