"Western Moonrise"

"Western Moonrise"

oil on board

The prairies and mountains of New Mexico recently set the stage for this enchanting mood. I can imagine a few cowboys sitting around their campfire after the doggies retire and singing about "Moonlight Ladies". For this painting I applied a few thin layers with lots of medium in order to get that soft, rosy blue glow behind the prairie.
