Painting Double Arch and Double arch Dawn
We got up well before dawn and drove
to Arches National Park and hiked up to Double Arch. I wanted
to be in position to photograph the sun rise hitting Double Arch.
setting up my tripod and focusing in on the arch Iin the rapidly
increasing light, I noticed through my camera's viewfinder what
looked like something moving in the arch. I zoomed in to see a
guy in white shorts and suspenders, no shirt, climbing up through
the arch. At least that's what I thought he was doing at the
time.He was bent over, rear end facing my camera right in the middle
of the arch. I waited a few minutes and still, he didn't move.
So I moved my camera to a different spot to try to get him out of my
shot or at least in a less obvious position. When I moved, he
moved keeping his butt in the frame. This went on for 15-20
minutes so there was absolutely no question, this jerk was mooning
my camera goofing up my shot. I almost painted this idiot into my
painting..."wildlife", right?
The original version entitled Double Arch (below) took 462+
hours to paint in 2005. In 2007, I decided to revise the piece and
did an additional 150+- hours to get the new Double Arch Dawn
version. |
