New paintings to The Grand Lake Gallery

Nymph Lake

I brought a new set of paintings to The Grand Lake Art Gallery in Grand Lake, Colorado this week. This painting, "Nymph Lake" is a 24" x 18" original pastel that is for sale there. With a record breaking hot summer I thought looking at some fresh snow might be refreshing. Nymph Lake is a short hike in Rocky Mountain National Park with a beautiful view of Longs Peak and the Keyboard of the Winds.
