the art of Lani Vlaanderen
I have returned from my adventure at the Medano-Zapata Ranch down by the Great Sand Dunes of Colorado. I met a group of artists there and we spent several days plein air painting and photographing this historic ranch. It is owned by the Nature Conservancy now and has turned to raising buffalo and just recently cattle as they did for hundreds of years before us. It was a great experience and I'm going to post some of my plein air pieces today so that you can see I haven't been sluffing off.
This is the view looking west at the Medano. Some of the giant cottonwoods have fallen and the barn was in disrepair, but the afternoon clouds still build as they have for hundreds of years in anticipation of the coming rains.
