Middle Spring on Sulphur Mountain

A month ago I used a recent painting of the Middle Spring to illustrate a blog post about a hypothetical self-sustaining CO2 removal loop.
The painting on the left, of the same location, was done back in the day when I used to limit myself to one viewpoint. I prefer the 2024 version -- and paintings with more content, in general.
These additional viewpoints can be achieved by rotating your field of vision or moving to a slightly different vantage point. Or both.
In my latest book, Paint Every Mountain, I devote a whole chapter to ‘Moving Around, Combining and Superimposing for a Better Composition’ and next week I'll write about the ultimate multi-viewpoint presentation.
