Silver Summit
The silver boom that swept through the Rocky Mountains during the mid-19th century serves as a profound backdrop for these contemporary interpretations of the Mountain West.
Rugged terrain and dramatic vistas symbolize the grandeur of the Rockies, where mining camps once thrived. Each brushstroke illustrates the raw, untamed nature of a land that was both a promise of wealth and a canvas of exploitation.
A silver toned background and veining highlights the silver deposits within the mineral-rich mountains, which once drew miners seeking fortune, many now transformed into world class ski resorts or wilderness zones are depicted with a sensitivity that acknowledges their raw majesty.
