Way off the beaten path!

Well what do you know?! I finished another piece! This one is "Above Snow Hollow Loop" it is 20x10, oil on board. These are the GPS coordinates: 39.946029, -112.414842.

Snow Hollow Loop is south of Vernon Utah and west of Eureka. Miki and I were out there exploring some little jeep trails last May after a very heavy snow season. Neither of us had been in the area before. There is a reservoir and campground down by the main loop but there are a good dozen or more jeep trails that spur off of it. We explored a handful and left the rest for another time when we are out there again.

One thing that was interesting to see is the grey areas around the snow fields. It seems like the as the snow melts it takes a while for the plants to sprout up and turn things green. So the grey areas are where the plants haven't had enough time to grow yet.

Here are a couple WIP shots and the reference from that day. Enjoy!
