The Lone Hiker

"The Lone Hiker"
oil on linen panel
10x20
$165
I have painted this scene twice before--the first time in watercolor and years later in oils in a 12x16 size.  I decided to try it once again in a long format.  I liked this size much better, and the linen canvas was much easier and freer to paint on.  It was painted from a photo I took years ago of my husband hiking in the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge.  I am always lingering behind him taking myriads of photos.  He has to be very patient hiking with me.

    1. Thanks, Chester. It was actually my husband. I frustrate him when we hike because I'm always lingering behind to take photos.
