In the distance you can see the east side of Tucson and the Rincons.
On the mountain it is cool. Down below it’s about 106F.
Remembering the fire in 2003 that you could see from Oracle, in the north.

Hey, your blog is great-I like all the extra goodies on it now. Love this post-what a fab way to manage the heat. Mt Lemmon has so much going on. Thanks!
Thanks Mer. It is great having an alpine get-a-way so close by!
I really like oil sketches and this is a good one. The thinness of the paint gives a delicate texture to the brushwork. Is it painted onto wood?
Thanks! Yes, it’s on wood – I like the texture and the grain of those panels.
There’s a great tradition of oil on wood going all the way back to the Old Masters!
