Framed Sun Relief on Plywood #2 Painting

I have been carving and grinding wood reliefs for 25 years. These reliefs were inspired by traveling to and from Colorado. I am awestruck by nature. The colors, textures, patterns, substance and vastness of it all. We can never get enough, and we will always seek to recreate the feelings we encounter because of it. To me the Colorado wilderness has no end. It has only beginnings. I have run to it several times in my life, and now I keep running with it. It goes on and on. My adventures drive my art, move my soul, free my heart and quiet my mind. My travels are integral to my well-being. When I travel, I end up looking at the mountains, the plains, the sky, the clouds. It excites me so much that when I see something that moves me I want to recreate it or even more-so replicate the feeling it has given me. This piece was the 2nd in a series of 11. I created 8 images off this 1 sheet of plywood. I had just moved back to Colorado after 10 years. I carved this relief in Boulder. The sun and my travels were so incredibly impactful at that time. It is also unique in the series because it has a much thicker frame than all the others and the frame was stained darker. It has a robust sunset exploding in the distance, which takes up the sky, as it should. The viewer is directed to exactly where the snow is hanging on to the 14k peaks in early spring. This pocket of snow is cradled by the foothills and the plains of the front range of Colorado. A great focus, a great end to the day, or beginning.
