Hudson River Fellowship 2011 Part 3

A few more plein air sketches from this year's Hudson River Fellowship. The first image is from Elka Park. The second is from the top of Hunter Mountain. The ski resort maintains their lift in the summer and they invited us to use their lift for free during the fellowship. A number of us went up the last day to paint. As it turns out the view is pretty incredible. The final image is below the bridge at Platte Clove. A pine tree has happy placed itself between a rock and a ... rock.

All three are painted on prepared paper with oils.
