Lost Canyon

Lost Canyon, 16 x 12

Today was a beautiful, blue sky day with cooler temperatures after our weekend rain - perfect for painting. I met up with my dear friend and great painter, Julie Davis, at a wonderful canyon land that runs through town. This path leads to some beautiful sunning rocks in Lost Creek - a popular hangout spot for the teenagers at this time of year.

  3. I posted this on Julie's blog too but I am so jealous you two got to paint together today! I am inspired by both of your works from today and wish I could've been there to learn from you both. Awesome painting!
