Heavendale (PRINT)

The original is a Textured & Oil on Canvas. 36 x 36 in. Ready to frame or hang as is: 1.5" deep stretcher - painting continues around the sides.

This painting was inspired by the movement of a band of cumulus clouds passing over the plains outside Pierre, South Dakota. A local photographer captured this glorious moment as shafts of light poured through the misty layers, illuminating the verdant, undulating countryside below. I am so thankful she let me use her brilliant photo as a reference!* I had fun sculpting the prairie portion of the painting before I painted it. Even the tiny hay bales are raised to define their cylindrical volume.

This painting is currently at my home studio. Please, contact me through the form below if  you would like to view it in person, inquire about a private commission similar to this painting or a print :).
