Artist story about Glacier National Park and ‘Sentinels of Hidden Lake’:
The mountain goats that frequent Hidden Lake in Glacier National Park make good use of their terrain. They leap, climb, and run up and down boulder-laden slopes with equal ease and fearlessness.
I thought it fitting to give these goats special importance in this painting since they add so much to the atmosphere as they watch over their pristine home as “Sentinels of Hidden Lake.”
A careful look at this original painting reveals a tiny paraglider that my son Jeff painted in the sky when I turned my back on the easel. The paraglider was subtle enough that I kept it, and the painting hung for three months in the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum as part of the Prix de West Show.
On a sidenote, during the trip in which I got my reference material for this painting of Glacier National Park, my wife took this photo of me painting on the Soltek Easel plein air easel I designed as a curious mountain goat looked on.
I’m used to bystanders watching me work when I’m outside, but usually they’re human.
This was a special and unique experience.
I’ve since used this photo in countless ads and marketing campaigns for the easel, and many people have told me they appreciate it.
