Benediction
oil on canvas mounted on panel, 20 x 30

 
  Since the beginning of 2005 I've been experimenting with nocturnes - images of the hours from sunset to sunrise - and I had some fantastic references of a stunning sunset we watched from up on Steens Mountain in southeastern Oregon a few years ago. The area is frequented by pronghorn, among other things, so it was quite easy to visualize this buck pausing for a moment at the end of the day.
