Depicts 3 vignettes of this vast stone silhouette, most striking
as the last “up thrust” of the foothills of the front range of the
Rocky Mountains, near Loveland, CO. My geologist dad  fostered
my intrigue for these “hogbacks”.

These “no-tan” trees are a stylized depiction of the forest’s various

to the aspen leaves, shimmering and twirling in the fall’s sunlight.
