Before and After I

this is a scene I really thought had potential when I first saw it two years ago. It is on Hwy 40 behind the Cozens Ranch and Stage Stop outside of Winterpark, CO. The painting I did on site was a disaster. The painting I did using the study and the photo was also not so good. Yet I still thought it had potential. So I decided to paint over the original painting to see if I could salvage it. I still contend it there is potential, and that the painting is now much improved, but it still is not where I wanted it to be. I just may have to try it again Plein Aire.
