This was the first time I’ve painted from a photo that I didn’t take. In this case, it was a commissioned work, and I used the photo “Mount Rainier Spectacular” by Seattle Photographer, Chris Rusnak as a reference. I’m not sure I would have taken the commission if I wasn’t so struck by the photo. It was a different way of working, and I very much enjoyed the collaborative nature of this work.
The original painting has sold. At this time, prints are not available, but please get in touch at mike@thefeelingoftheplace.com if that is something you are interested in.
