Mt. Assiniboine
The Matterhorn of the Rockies.
I first stood in the shadow of Mt. Assiniboine in the late 70's. I had cross country skied in and had to carry a pack with all my belongings. I have also stood in the shadow of the Matterhorn in Switzerland. Both are powerful mountains.
This painting of Mt. Assiniboine was in the early morning, the sun just coming up, the air cold and crisp, not a breath of wind. Painted in Sepia, it offers great contrast of morning light and cold dark rock surrounded by glaciers.
