How I created "Standing in Aspens"

I recently received a Second Place Award for my Painting "Standing in Aspens" from the Glendale Arts Council, additionally they honored my with a Purchase award.

This piece was based on a small study I did in the Summer of 2014 while in Teton National Park.  The study was 10" X 8" and the final piece is 18" X 36".


I made several videos of the process.  I look rather stern and I don't think I am that stern.
