Kearsarge Near the Top II





























Kearsarge Near the Top II
9 in. x 12 in., acrylic on canvas    
$150 (framed)


This is the second painting of a portion of the Barlow Trail on Mount Kearsarge just before the last crest near the summit.  I first painted this as a dainty 5 x 7 inch study, which lives in my studio.  The image is from a hike last summer, and is particularly special to me, so I decided to paint it again, this time in a larger format.  When moving from a small study to a larger canvas, you must also move up to a larger set of brushes, fiddle considerably more with the details, and maybe spend about twice as long on the painting!
