Fields of Confetti

"Fields of Confetti"
24" X 24", oil on canvas.
SOLD

This painting is an expressive take on Glacier National Park's fields of flowers. Wild flowers go on beyond what the eye can see in this amazing landscape. What I find simply awesome is the fact all these flowers grow in such rugged terrain. Heart breaking news about this landscape is the glaciers in Glacier National Park are to be completely melted away in 20 years.

Grinnell Lake in Glacier National Park


I took this photo I think in the summer of 2003. I do know it was August as my family and I were celebrating the life of my grandfather "Stormin' Norman". No I am not the granddaughter of General Schwarzkopf. My grandfather was as most of his friends would say, "One hell of a guy" with a personality as big as the mountains in Glacier. 

This is hands down the most amazing hike I have ever been on. Usually the trails to Grinnell Lake do not open until mid summer and most visitors would plan to hike in August. An interesting read on hiking Glacier is found on Glacier Hikers website. They report that this year as of June 11 there is still snow fall which would indicate the trail is still closed!
