"Mount Wilson Trail" ©



A few weeks before the devastating Sierra Madre Fire I hiked the Mount Wilson Trail. Today it hit me that the trail was probably caught in the middle of the fire and now just a path through a charred mountainside. This lovely tree is one that anyone hiking the trail has to pass. While I painted her I was hoping that just maybe she was spared. I'll have to go back and see.

Another winner!
I love the moodiness of this painting and the way the sunlight hits the trail and little places in the shady area.
Be well.
