Not a new painting

I haven't any new drawings or paintings to post, so I thought I'd put up an old one that I don't think I've put up before. Maybe I have. This is one of my most worked-over subjects, in the traditional studio sense, ever. I did some sketches of this area on-the-spot at Twin Mountain in the Vedauwoo are near Laramie, Wyoming. Then I turned the sketches into a painting. The painting was a disappointment, but there were some really good parts of it. I knew I could do it better. So after I moved back to Louisville, I used it as the basis for this one. This one turned out much better. The thing I miss most about Wyoming is being able to just drive out to spots like this and walk around.
