Inlet Stream

As the Bitterroot River rises water flows into inlets creating small scenes. Grasses and shrubs are punctuated by numerous colors as the water flows on by.

Bitterroot River

I was asked to do this painting based on one of my reference photographs of a fall scene, with a variation. The request was to replace the yellows of fall with greens in the painting to match the color scheme of the livingroom. Cottonwoods and aspens trees line many of Montana's nearby rivers.
