Weather comes in fast and hard in the high alpine San Luis Valley and the surrounding Sangre de Cristo mountains. Sometimes I have the sensation that the mountains disappear entirely.
Afternoon Mist invites viewers into a quiet moment where mountain and meadow meet under a softened sky. The scene captures a distant range layered in cool blues and gentle grays, fading thoughtfully into the horizon, creating an expansive sense of calm and space. In contrast, the foreground offers a textured green field, alive with subtle brushwork that suggests the untamed growth of alpine vegetation.
Two simple structures in warm, earthy tones rest quietly within the field, providing a grounded presence that balances the natural landscape. Overhead, a muted blue sky stretches across the composition, dotted with delicate, wispy clouds that enhance the gentle tranquility of the setting.
This oil painting on panel is traditionally framed, presenting a window into the serene moods of a misty mountain valley in the afternoon rain.
In this series of paintings, I’ve tried to capture the mountains directly behind my home in a variety of circumstances, to capture the moods of each time of day.
This piece measures 23x26” / 29x32” framed.
