Camel's Hump Study

Camel's Hump is the second highest peak in Vermont. It has an iconic profile and there are many places to view and paint this peak. This study came about as a result of a plein air painting I did from George Woodard's farm in Waterbury. That peice is also show on this page. I wanted to explore painting a larger piece in a horizontal format of this view, but decided to explore the composition first with some small studies. I liked this study the best, and finished it into this small painting.

I took creative license and add or expanded some of the fields in the distance to create a better visual feel. But by and large this is the beautiful view of Camel's Hump from this location. Now I need to add the larger painting to my list of projects to get to!
