Well, here it is...the mural I completed at the end of January, 2009. The mural was painted on location at the American West Heritage Center in Wellsville, Utah. The painting was too large to do in my studio, and the Center proved to be a really nice temporary studio space.

The total size of the mural is 10 feet tall, by 72 feet wide, and there are four cut-outs to allow for some dioramas and displays. The mural is permanently housed in a large, modern post-and-beam museum patterned after a barn. The murals' sheer size is quite impressive in person.

The wall that the mural is painted on is actually a big "U" shape. All the panels (except the two ends) are curved. A person can stand in the middle of the room essentially be surrounded on almost all sides by the mural.

The autumn/summer panel. About 90% complete.	The summer/spring panel, before the addition of a herd of cattle on the left (background), and a small fur trapper encampment on the right. About 80% complete.	The spring/winter panel, before I painted some Shoshone tipis in the background. 75% complete.
The winter panel, about 45% complete.
