Stanley Hotel plein air

As promised here is the first plein air painting I did in Estes Park. The first in oil that I've done in a while. It was a wonderful afternoon by the lake. I've definitely got to get out more! I had several visitors come by. Including two buck elks who waded thru the water, (below right). I'm assuming they were taking the short cut to their suite at the Stanley. Also stopping by, was wayfaring photographer Jessica Kraft. That's her in the video below taking some pix of the painting. She's a sweet soul. Check out her work: ​http://www.jessicakraft.com
