Vogelsang Peak 16 x 20" Plein air oil painting
Hello -- I'm a new artist on Palette Knife Painters and am showing a recent painting of Vogelsang Peak in Yosemite National Park here on my first post. I did this painting this summer and it is part brushwork but mostly palette knife work. The snowfields are here all year long at 10,000 ft. elevation. I really love the way oil paint has a rich and thick impasto quality when it is scooped up with a knife and laid down on a painting surface. And I love painting rocks this way . . . and we have plenty of rocks in Yosemite! I paint full time outdoors and also in my studio in Mariposa, California. It is great to be a part of this group! I welcome all comments -- thanks.
