Time Changes Everything

The weather has become a mental force unavoidable in the raging den of Nelson. And my painting has begun to transform along with the seasons. I moved its location inside because my hands were going numb working in the cold.

The Final Days of Summer, Rain begins over the city.

Before I began detailing the mountains, I looked for some inspiration from local artist Jennie Baillie http://www.jennybaillie.com/ . I love the way she uses unusual colors to accentuate the shapes of mountains.

Fall arrives.

Listening to some dark electronic music the other morning I began adding in some monstrous mountains in the distance.

The mountains come alive.

 Sleeping in this scene is intoxicating.
