32" x 22" - $445.00   One of the compositional possibilities in my work is to “mix & match” favorite scenes from Sierra’s high country. “Castle Rock Rapids” takes its cues from several sites in Yosemite’s Tuolumne Meadows. Often the intention is to heighten visual characteristics by juxtaposing opposites. The sinuous flow of the rapids seems more fluid on the Dana Fork when staged by the Craggy architecture of the bluff discovered on the way to Cathedral Peak. The shallow water of the foreground attempts to quiet the mood of the painting.
