Bugle Boy

oil on canvas mounted on panel, 12 x 12


 
 

To me, the colors of the Rockies in autumn are blue and gold; and the sound of the Rockies in the autumn is that high, wild cry of the elk in rut. This handsome guy was standing out in a sunlit meadow of gold with a dark background in the distance, setting off his magnificent rack - so essentially, even though it's abstracted, I painted what I saw. I'm pleased with the color, texture, and presentation of this little piece.
