The First Olympic Jump – Original Oil on Canvas, 16 x 20 inch

Inspiration into this Painting: Standing on top of Hurricane Ridge in the Olympic Mountains, I felt completely overwhelmed by the raw majesty of nature. With this canvas, I wanted to capture a moment lost to time, honoring the mountain goats that once leaped freely across these high, subalpine ridges. This piece acts as a beautiful time capsule—contrasting the sharp, formidable peaks with the soft tranquility of misty meadows as the sun hides away behind the mountains.

About the Painting:  An original 16x20 inch oil painting on thing canvas. The edges of the canvas are one inch deep perfect for future framing or displaying as it. The edges of the painting are painted ivory black. The painting is wired and ready to hang, right out of the box. Signed on the front with the year of creation. Titled, year of creation and autographed on the back with indication of being original on the canvas. Additionally, the artwork comes with a serialized, signed Certificate of Authenticity. Note: Being a classical oil painting (and not acrylic) the final oil out and varnishing has not been applied; this would jeopardize the longevity of the artwork in the curing polymerization process. This will need to be accomplished by myself or another professional no sooner than 9 months after the purchase.  This will lock in the vibrant colors and protect the painting for multiple generations to enjoy.  Detailed care instructions are provided during this process.
