Mt. Rainier 5" x 5" on Arches Watercolor paper
I painted this from a photograph that my husband took last year while on one of our daily walks. Frequently we are able to see this majestic mountain in all it's splendor, but occasionally clouds cover it from view.
My camera has arrived and I've been trying to learn as much about it as I can so that when I find that perfect shot I'll be ready. Last week we were walking along our normal route and we saw a small seal sun bathing on a dock. That would have been a great shot!
Absolutely GLORIOUS!!! I really love the variety you've achieved in the foliag e-- it looks

Beautiful mountain tops. You are lucky to be so much close to nature.

ReplyDeleteThank you Lin. I do feel blessed to have this beauty around me. It is quite inspiring.
ReplyDeleteThanks Indianartist. We are so fortunate to see the mountains we have. Lucky is just the tip of the iceberg ...
Sylvia, nice to meet you. We are rewarded with sunlight on Mt Rainier frequently. More often than you'd think we see a beautiful pink in the snow.
lovely! it looks like Mount Fuji in Japan :)
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful--not sure how I stumbled on your art, but came from someone else's blog, I think! How lovely. Your art is beautiful.
ReplyDeletevery nice Nancy! fresh and clean as usual. Hope to see more in the future. Even though done from a photo it is clear you have paid attention to how the light looks on the mountain "in person". Bravo!
ReplyDeleteLove the Mt. top! Thanks for coming to see my paintings. I've been browsing through your early posts, admiring. Looks like you've been busy of late (me, too). Must be the time of year. And you are blessed with the beauty of the NW. Are you on Bainbridge? Suquamish?
