Original plein air painting | 9×12” | oil on panel
Emigrant Wilderness, California
My son accompanied me on this hike, and he painted as well. In early May, most of the trail was still under a foot or two of snow but we found enough exposed granite on the edge of the canyon that we could comfortably paint together. We were working happily when we heard a lion call in the unmistakable half-cat, half-bird chirping sound. Since it was already late afternoon, I painted faster than ever so we could finish hiking out before dusk. We made it back with no other sign of the lion.
