Dream Lake Oil Landscape Painting, Rocky Mountain National Park, Framed Paper Print

Over five years ago (time flies!) I hiked up to Dream Lake with 20 Ibs of painting gear and had the most glorious afternoon painting plein air. The air was crisp, and the water was an immense teal so clear that fishing seemed a completely unfair endeavor. Truth is that I was more content in just watching a small trout dance along the shore than catching it. Lately, Dream Lake has been calling me.

"Dream Lake" is a finely textured, archival giclée print on cotton paper of an oil painting of Dream Lake located in Rocky Mountain National Park, printed on archival cotton paper, created in 2019.
