The scene in this painting is Mount Shasta, as seen from Mount Ashland. It is the view from the ski lodge.
I live close enough to this place to drive up in about 35 minutes. It truly is a special place. In the winter I love to come and enjoy winter sports - there’s always more snow here than in the Rogue Valley. In the summer it provides a place to cool off. The Pacific Crest Trail comes through this spot and this stretch hosts incredible wild flowers and an amazing diversity of bumble bees and butterflies. There is a tiny, tiny lupine that lives ONLY on Mount Ashland. It’s just the most happy place to go. The yellow flowers in the meadow are sulphur buckwheat.
I started this painting in 2023 from a small plein air sketch and some photo references. I took the references into the studio and worked through the winter. Then in June 2024, I brought the partially completed piece up to the mountain and used the back of my car as an easel and worked en plein air several times. I then finished it up through the summer and fall back in the studio.
This is the largest landscape I have painted thus far. The expansive view required an expansive canvas.
