Spent some quality time following a Michael James Smith tutorial for this one. It reminded me of waves I saw on St. Bart’s.

In 2020, I started painting to alleviate boredom and stress, having never done anything artistic before. That same year, I went to Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado for the first time. The beauty of that place is truly stunning, and inspiring.

When I got back home, I decided to do a painting of one of the my favorite pictures I had taken on a trail above Bear Lake. That first effort is the painting on the left below. I was never happy with it, but moved onto other projects.

Now five years later, I wanted to see if I could come any closer to doing it justice. I decided to paint it again. I will say the one I just finished on the right is not nearly as accurate of a portrayal, but I like it much much more. I did take liberties with the color of the water. The color I painted this time, I saw in Colorado as well in other locations. I changed the vantage point because I just could not make that perspective work very well. I’ll post the photo in the comments.

It’s interesting to see how I’ve progressed.
