Invisible Path to the Top


A day without rain is an opportunity not to waste.  So I found myself at Haley Farm at the end of Hopper Road in Williamstown, MA.  No one was at the farm, and the parking lot had only one car.  The end of Hopper Road is a trail head for several hiking trails, Money Brook, Haley Farm, and the Hopper trails, that can take you up to the top of Mount Greylock.  I set up in the middle of the main trail path that goes through the clump of trees, which you see in the middle of my painting.  The trees hide the Hopper, the sharp and steep valley visible in the background at left.  12x16 oil on panel.
