This painting of the Cove was from sometime in the fall--I did about 6-8 paintings at different times of day. These were the colors just before sundown.
From over 100 degree weather in Western Australia to 40-50 degrees in Northern New Zealand just before sun down at a beautiful chalet hotel at the foot of Mt. Ruapehu (I think that is the mountain), a volcano. This is much more like weather I am use to in the Pacific Northwest, but it is summer here! Tomorrow we do the famous Tongariro Alpine Crossing, a 10 mile hike. I'll let you know if we make it all the way--
Purchase this unframed painting.
Contact me if you would like to purchase a plein air frame.
Boy do I love this painting. All the colors I love, the simplification and the beautiful, thick brushwork!!
