McKee Final Composite

This is my final post for the McKee Hospital PIPs (paintings in progress).  The four pieces are at the frame shop, Colorado Frames in Fort Collins, www.coloradoframes.com.  The image below illustrates how they'll be presented, floated on black sueded matte, with a simple black frame, under TruVue plexiglas.  The framed size is just over 4' tall X 6' wide.

The dedication/unveiling is scheduled for October 3rd, 3:00, in the Coors Room of the McKee Wellness Center.  The piece will be hung behind the reception desk in the main lobby sometime after that. 

I'm happy to be done with this project, and pleased with the results.  It was fairly challenging; I used numerous reference photos of area mountain ranges, trees, wild iris and Colorado Columbine, and bodies of water.  Developing paintings this way is a great creative exercise -- much harder than painting a single scene that I've taken pictures of! 

Thanks again to the McKee Service League for selecting me to create this major new piece for the hospital.
