Bighorn
sheep are among the most typical animals of North America.
Wild sheep species are found throughout most mountains of
the world, but the Rocky Mountain bighorns are my favorite.
As
I paint mostly forest scenes, the challenge in this painting
was to eliminate all the green and create a nice painting
with nothing but brown tints. I wanted to give the feeling
of being
up high in the mountains, above the timber line. In most
of my paintings, you cannot see the sky, but this one is
an exception.
I have shown a lot of sky just to create that special feeling
of being up high in the mountains. The field work for this
painting was done at Glacier National Park, where the sheep
are very tame and easy to spot. The worn look of the rams'
horns, caused by their numerous combats, was one of the nice
things to paint. ~ Carl Brenders |
