Radiant Sunset– Big Pine Camp

16×36″ oil on canvas– This was a sunset to remember… layers of mountains dissolving in to the light and particularly speedy clouds racing and changing colors across the sky.  Thirty minutes earlier and the day was still afoot– a thirty minutes later and the stars were glowing behind the clouds.  This area burned eleven years ago in the Zaca Fire and it has beautifully risen from the ashes like a true phoenix.  Nice work, mother nature… : )
