"West Fork Oak"


"West Fork Oak"
24x18 oil painting March 2008
This painting represents the Fall season at West Fork in Oak Creek Canyon, just north of Sedona, Arizona. My wife and I frequent this trail, especially in the Fall when the oak leaves are changing to red along with many other colors from a variety of deciduous trees. This particular image features a Ponderosa Pine tree with oak branches and leaves forming a halo. The bright Arizona sun is highlighting these leaves causing a sparkle effect. Look forward to more new paintings recently created but currently drying in my studio.
