I was wondering what to paint this morning. I had taken some night photos the other night and was thinking of painting one of these. But, I woke late, and before I started, the morning light was streaming in the window. It inspired me to do some morning painting.
I decided to do a painting of the Dezadeash Lake area, although I haven’t had a chance to get there recently. Whenever I decide to go on a photo run to either the White Pass or Chilkat Pass, the weather forecast immediately changes to the terrible side of the coin. So far this winter, saying I was headed out there has yielded heavy snowfall warnings, winter storm warnings, and my particular favourite, wind chills of -50°C. Therefore, this was done from an older photo.
