The glory of wilderness extends beyond
the domain of daylight. In my first two collections celebrating the majesty
of mountains, we rejoiced at the beginning and the end of a perfect day.
Now, as we bid a fond adieu to the twentieth century, we move on, appropriately,
to savor the pleasures of evening.The real star of Evening Majesty, first
in my new Beginning of a Perfect Evening collection, is the luminous sunset.
This painting is truly majestic in its scope; perhaps that's another connection
the painting has with the turning of the millennium. To my mind, this would
be the perfect place to spend New Year's 2000, curled up by the fire.
