One Done, One in Progress

The images of Santa Fe linger. It is partially fed by reading American Prometheus, a bio of J. Robert Oppenheimer. What I hadn't realized while I was in Santa Fe, is that Oppenheimer had fallen in love with northern New Mexico early in his life and that he leased and then owned a ranch there from his early 20's. There are many tales about the time he spent there prior to the Manhattan Project being planted there.

I am putting more of the memories to paint and paper. I hope to do more.

The completed one...



The one in progress...
