I don't think I've posted the finished painting, so here it is. Sorry if you are tired of it! 😝

Went out for a hike after a day of horrendous wind. The clouds were lifting. 

I'm really grateful for everyone who liked, boosted, and commented on this painting. Mastodon rocks.

A quick study, "From the Peak" pastel on paper, 5x7 in.
Yes, it's a small size, but it wasn't done on just another pastel paper; it's called Wallis paper, and this is my first time ever using this famous, hard to obtain paper. Hard to obtain, because this company no longer exists.

"Fallon View"
pastel on UART paper (mounted) - 20x16 in

Well, guys, I'm cranky. First, it's crazy windy here and I hate it. I can't go hiking. Then this; a typical case where the study is better than the actual painting. The proportions are all wrong, and I couldn't even get close to what I really wanted to express.
I don't remember who said it, but yeah, it's true... "The biggest obstacle to representation is representation itself."
