"Bridger Canyon" - a new Bridger Mountain landscape painting

Here's a new landscape piece I just finished titled "Bridger Canyon". The painting is 12X24 and the scene is from Bridger Canyon in early summer. For those who don't know, the Bridger Mountains are near Bozeman, Montana. I paint them often, since they're just outside my backdoor, and they never seem to get old. This is the first painting I've done of the East side of the range; the peaks you see are Mount Baldy, Bridger Peak, and Saddle Peak. The Bridger Bowl ski resort is located just to the right of where the painting ends. I really enjoyed working with the bright "spring" greens in this piece.
