That Little Spot Beside the Trail

Spot-Beside-the-Trail

A little Olympic Mountains water study today. We saw this nice little place the other day as we were on the Spruce Railroad Trail, a hike that will soon change from an old meandering path beside Lake Crescent to a wide ADA-compliant highway, straight as an arrow with graded shoulders – so I wanted to paint something to remember it.  (And don’t get me wrong about providing a great experience for folks not quite as ambulatory as we are – it may be us on there someday.) Nancy was photographing this little place, too, and I liked the way the water spilled down each section of rock, each different, each the same. All else was covered with moss, lichens and ferns making it feel, well, wet. Spring was unfolding quickly here, with coltsfoot coming on fast.

This ORIGINAL painting is acrylic on board, 6″ x 9″ and $145 framed. Outside edge of the frame is about 12″ x 15″.
This custom frame has a triple liner and glass. Shipping adds just a bit more depending on your zone. This is the original painting, NOT a print.

And here’s Nancy’s effort at the same place. She went for the entire enchilada while I settled for just a bite. Photo by Nancy Cherry Eifert.
