"Bear Tracks" 12x16 Winter Sunrise Landscape Painting Birds leaving behind a sea of

leaving behind a sea of what looks like toothpicks and dirt

The one thing that fascinates me more than a sunset itself is a big thunderstorm at the same time

but it gave me the feeling that I wanted to portray in this painting we ended up spending about six or seven eight days back in this area sleeping on a ground mat under the stars and throughout that time there were these moments all week long night and day that continued to inspire me more and more and as I began to take in all of the beauty in this area I just knew that I had to paint something from this experience

Get lost in the serenity and detail of this artwork

and good times

"Bear Tracks" 12x16 Winter Sunrise Landscape Painting Birds leaving behind a sea of"Bear Tracks" Every spring before the snowmelt, the grizzlies find their way out into the early hint of warm air and intensifying sunlight. I found this view along a warm springs creek just as the sun peeked through the horizon. It was chilly that morning, but the late winter sun was strong. Not too long after, I had stumbled across the first set of bear tracks of the year; a reminder that the wilderness was beginning to awaken. Specifics: 12x16"
