Last Run Oil on canvas 16x20 $400


 I had hoped to not only capture the exhilaration of a powder run at end of glorious day of skiing, but more. As you make your carefree turns in the powder you have an opportunity to take in the spectacular beauty that surrounds you. But you are torn, torn between stopping and enjoying the view or connecting turn after turn in virgin powder. As hopefully you can see-the skier overcomes the spectator, linking turn after turn. Perhaps I will redo this someday with our skier pausing at the overlook to absorb the colors, the view and the scents from the nearby firs.
