loved the way the morning sun was working its way
up over the rocks.

Beautiful, Claire ! Your rocks are awesome! The light seems to carry you through the painting to the source.
Wow Claire! You do a great job with those rocks!!
You really ROCK! :)
Thank you, Julie! There are quite a few 'paintings waiting to happen' up at Little Round Top - most of which would include the incredible rock formations up there.
No, Linda - I just have rocks in my head!!!! :)
Not at all Claire, the rocks you are painting are great...but a golf teacher told me once "be the ball" to play better. If you have those rocks in your head, keep them there; they are working great in your rock paintings.
I really enjoy the airiness of the tree tops and the weight in the rocks.
beauty
I think one of the reasons I like the rocks up at Gettysburg so much is because of all of the history they hold...they have 'seen' quite a lot.
Thank you, Patricia - I think that very contrast was another factor that made me want to paint this.
Thank you, Sunny!
I agree...those rocks look great! Nice!
Claire, you just have a way with rocks and trees- such a wonderful balance to your colors and compositions- such a pleasure to look at.
