On a trip up to the Clagett/Rey Gallery in Edwards CO to see the Josh Elliott show  (which is great by the way)  we stopped on the way to do a little painting,  perched along a dirt road with a spectacular view towards Copper Mountain. The scenery was beautiful and many of the mountain wildflowers were in bloom. Here's the small painting I did of the view across the valley. Clouds slowly built as we worked and by the time we left the backlit trees were shadowed under a cloudy sky.
