It was a comment by a collector about this piece that gave it its name - High Cirrus. The graduated tints, the elevation, the light moving across the dramatic clouds - all combined to give them a sense of hopefulness and peace. This was painted at the Grove Park Inn, on their Sunset Terrace on a lovely summer evening, mid-summer. The small clouds dancing across the sky; the mountain mist rising drew my attention. This is oil on a very archival canvas over aluminum panel, using Michael Harding paints - the best there is.
