Karen and her husband spend a fair amount of time on horseback so they get to see beautiful sights the rest of us ooh and aah over. The Pecos Wilderness is an area of New Mexico I've never been to. I don't know if the rocks have a separate name, but they are my focus for this painting.

From a photograph by Barbara Cooper

The Grand Tetons were much different than I expected when we visited there this summer. The mountains are huge and there are so many of them, but they are all together. No one mountain stood out. This view is at nearly dark. One lone duck is swimming along. I was surprised to see a white line along the edge between the land and the water. Normally that edge would be very dark.

Painted from a photograph by Christine Huard-Adams

This painting is of Rundle Ridge and Policeman's Creek near Canmore, Alberta. I believe I have a photograph from the other side of this ridge. The whole area is beautiful.

I've learned that a rainbow of colors makes a painting more interesting even though the colors may be very soft.
