I got up at 5:30AM to paint the sunrise, but no luck. Estes was again covered with clouds. It is supposed to clear up this afternoon, and definitely tomorrow. I thought it worthwhile to explore the park, so drove up to Bear Lake (very nice, easy places to set up) and ended up doing the study below in Moraine Valley.

Moraine Valley, Oil on Linen, 8×10

Off to lunch now. The event has daily scheduled lunches for artists at various local restaraunts and a reception tonight.
