Through Timber and Sky is a richly textured abstract inspired by a vivid memory of hiking a secluded trail in Vail, Colorado. This 24" x 36" x 1.5" original painting captures the essence of towering trees, the winding trail, a gentle creek, and the expansive, sunlit sky overhead.

Earthy neutrals of warm taupe, soft ochre, and sienna intermingle with shades of denim blue, slate, and ivory, creating a layered impression of the natural elements along the forest path. With a palette knife technique, the textures mimic bark, shifting light through branches, and water gently reflecting the sky—blurring the line between realism and abstraction.

This piece invites viewers into a moment of quiet awe—an emotional landscape where sky and land meet in harmony. Perfect for collectors who seek art with depth, story, and a deep connection to the outdoors.

The edges are painted a dark prussian blue and a flat varnish has been applied to the painted surfaces. The painting is wired and ready to hang. A Certificate of Authenticity is included. Ships ready to install and enjoy.
