It seems like I have been working on this piece for longer than I care to consider but it is finally ready for a coat of varnish and framing. Yesterday I included the piece on my website gallery and my Fine Art America site. It has been a challenge not only because it was a more complex painting but because I suffered the loss of my dear mother-in-law during the process. I'm really going to miss taking each piece over to show her as I complete them. She was so encouraging to me and really acted as she genuinely loved seeing each and every painting as I finished them.
I've already started another prospector piece but this time in acrylic. Hopefully I will be able to showcase that one here in the next few weeks. I have always loved American history and trying to capture the rugged beauty of the American west is a challenge that I really want to pursue.
