Henry's Fork Plein Aire

This painting came together on a perfect Indian Summer afternoon spent with my ailing father and our youngest son. My son kept his grandfather entertained and busy as he sat in a folding chair watching me paint. The painting captures the warmth of the day, the enchantment of the gentled river and the soft play of light.

About the Artist

Steve Spencer, an Idaho native, is a self-taught wildlife, landscape and portrait artist. His paintings are the fruit of rigorous contact with the source, the hours he spends in front of an easel are preceded by weeks in the mountains and canyons of the west. The landscapes are places he has walked and is familiar with. Steve's work is an articulate expression of his love for the 'delicate weave of extremes' that is the West. He finds individual purpose and challenge in his creations, allowing his works to 'speak for themselves'.

Throughout Steve's 40 years as a professional artist he only offered his work as originals. Just recently he has made the decision to allow many of his former works to be printed and distributed by Fineart America. In the future look for many more pieces of fine art by Steve Spencer.
