Mugi Hill Glowing Red, Mount Kenya

 

60 x 80 cm

oil and mixed media on linen canvas

Framed in a custom designed oak frame

 

Mugi Hill glowing red above the Nithi River on the eastern slopes of Mount Kenya.

The painting was developed from the changing light encountered along the Chogoria route, where dense vegetation, rock and water give way to the higher reaches of the mountain. Here, the last light catches Mugi Hill while the river moves through the darker landscape below.
