MOUNT TIMPANOGOS, UTAH VALLEY

I painted this in oil from a picture that I took in the early spring of 2023.  I did a little Bob Ross technique with this one.  I've got work to do to make the clouds more realistic. The view supposed to be from the Wasatch Front, high enough that I could look down through pine trees toward the 11,000 foot mountain. The Provo River can be seen at the lower left, and comes down through the Provo Canyon and out onto the valley flat. 

Timpanogos has also long been a tradition in our family. My father, Lowell Biddulph, grew up in Provo and climbed Timpanogos 21 times by the time he was 18-years of age. He loved this mountain, and it was here that he cultivated his love for hiking and mountain climbing, something he passed on to his children.
