Divine Afternoon

This was indeed a divine afternoon when I saw this beautiful backlit scene on Bear Lake Road in Rocky Mountain National Park. The shadows were a bit difficult to pull off and it was a very challenging painting, but I was finally pleased with the result! I had to take a major tree out because it was stealing the show from the effect of the soft, backlit shadows on the snow - my main reason for painting it.

The price includes a beautiful frame, but it may be sold as a 16x20 canvas unframed, also.
