About the painting:
Painted August 2025. It all started at 4:30 AM. The kind of hour most fishermen, elk hunters and dreamers find themselves awake. We were on a mission to scout for elk, but Alicia Little had a different motive: catching the tail end of a meteor shower that promised cosmic magic in the early morning sky.
Blurry-eyed but hopeful, we powered through the essentials. A couple quick showers, breakfast, packed our lunches, and a fully loaded Jeep. After a little over an hour, we arrived at the edge of the Guadalupe Mountains, still wrapped in early morning shadows.
No meteors. Not a single streak. But what came instead was pure magic.
As we slowly wound our way up higher into the forest, the sun began to crest over the peaks. The whole sky caught fire in soft, surreal shades of pink and violet. It was the kind of light that stops you mid-sentence, mid-breath. You don’t just see it. You actually feel it. A quiet, awe-filled moment that reminds you just how breathtaking this world really is and how mighty God’s creations are.
I knew right then: I had to try to capture that light. That feeling, that morning, that exact moment, is when “Scouting the Pink Light" was born.
This painting isn’t just a landscape, it’s now a memory frozen in time, an acrylic mugshot. It’s a gentle nudge to slow down, breathe deep, and soak in the beauty that’s all around us. And most importantly, a reminder that the hunt isn’t always about the harvest. It’s about the early mornings, the shared laughs, the quiet awe of a breath taking sunrise, the entire journey, that ends up being what matters the most.
