About the Item
Description
Alfred Mitchell’s plein air oil paintings often measured sixteen by twenty inches, the size that fit his sketch box, and could be easily carried outdoors. In this 16 x 20-inch painting of Mt. Shasta, an active volcano in Northern California, the artist leads the viewer’s eyes upwards through the V-shaped composition displayed by the pine trees in the middle ground. The snow-capped mountains are described with bold strokes of color, including faint pink and lavender, while portraying the foreground valley in lavish strokes of bright green and orange. Though mostly a realistic depiction of the scene, Mitchell’s highly expressive use of color is also evident.

- Morning Clouds Hovering Below Mount Blanca; Trinchera Ranch, ColoradoBy Peter AdamsLocated in Pasadena, CAArtist Statement "While staying at the Forbes' Trinchera Ranch in southern Colorado, I was intrigued by seeing this heavy cloud layer every morning hovering below Mt. Blanca's impressive peak of 14,351 feet. The cloud layer created an atmospheric division between the cool shadows below and the bright, warm light above." ―Peter Adams Description The artist's particular bold, broad brushwork magnifies a sense of epic in this pristine scene. The painting exemplifies the American West as an expansive land of free spirit and boundless possibilities. The colors are opulent and there is an intriguing sense of mystery about the subject, a Shangri-la feeling. The presentation of the painting makes a grand entrance statement. Provenance Acquired by the gallery directly from the artist Gallery Note The artist began the painting in 2006 and completed it in November of 2017. Exhibited Maxwell House...Category
