South Mineral Creek

This 9×12 plein air painting was done last summer on location from our campsite on South Mineral Creek, near Silveerton, Colorado. The area is a favorite both for it’s scenic value as well as the fishing. Just upstream to my rear about 1/2 mile is a series of waterfalls that are very picturesque, cascading into clear pools at their foot. This particular morning the vista was enshrouded with low clouds (fog). When it lifted it revealed this sccene. This painting sold at auction.
