Description
This painting depicts a treasured fall day that will live on in my memory forever. My son Lex, my 87 year old mother, and I took a picnic to the Golden Gate State Park near our home in Colorado. You never know when you head to the mountains if you will catch the aspens in the height of perfection, and on this day, we were stunned with our good fortune. The leaves and the lighting were breath taking. My mom, her hiking days behind her, waited at our picnic table, soaking in the autumn glow, while Lex and I took a walk. Here he is, disappearing into the encroaching shadows.

How incredibly beautiful, Anne. The last painting I saw with such depth was a Gustav Corbett that was mesmerizing ... This is on that level. It is masterfully done. F/L/V

I like the golden hues against the greens too. So much detail in the various trees that one seldom sees in an oil--except by the masters....Guess you are one of them, Anne!!! I am sure of it now. FAV

Beautiful work, dear Anne. May be it is unintended, but for me this gives me goosebobs, because of the contrast of the beautiful golden meadow and leaves and the dark shadows to which he is heading. I suppose something mysterious is going on in this wood. L & F
