This image began with a photo that I took back in the summer of 2016, during a trip to Colorado. I was visiting Colorado Springs and my friends took me to Garden of the Gods, but on the way we drove past these foothills, scarred by the Waldo Canyon Fire. Today I cropped the original photo and added posterizing effect to emphasize the texture of the burnt trees. I am planning a painting for a special themed show, and I am going to use this as a reference, but I plan to change the colors of the sky, to evoke the aftermath of a forest fire.
