A Painting Day - Mountain Shadow - Ruth Andre


"Mountain Shadow"
4.5"x4.5" oil & cold wax on paper
by Ruth Andre
Challenge Painting Eight

The view from my front windows is of a very tall mountain. The oak trees line the base of the mountain  and then the evergreen pines cover the mountain side leaving the valley to what is called "up country". The mountain shadow is sometimes cooling and at other times it is very cold depending upon the season. I miss the long hours of sun in winter. The mountain is strong and an old friend that I meet as I make my way through the day. It has been, "A Painting Day".
