Destroyed
Marge and I took a trip to Moon Lake in the Uintah mountains. The trees were bent due to the weight of many winter snow seasons. I took a photograph of a closed landscape (one without sky). I used the photo to paint this picture for the living room of our apartment. The apartment was on Third Avenue in Salt Lake City. The painting hung above our couch for many years.
It was damaged to the point that I destroyed it. I was sad to see it go.
Closed landscapes are always intriguing to me—not the easiest to do.
