Moon Over Nevada

Here's a studio painting I just finished that was done from reference photos I took when I travelled through Nevada in early May. We had camped out near a dried salt lake next to an old ghost town and the ghost town's old cemetery, when the full moon rose over the mountains to the east just as the sun was setting. It was quite spectacular, scenery-wise. I had a few 16 x 20 canvases handy and decided to try using one of them, so it is a bit larger than the plein air ones I have been doing lately.
 Moon Over Nevada, 16 x 20.
