Mountain Stream

BERNARD MARKS WROTE ABOUT HIS STRIKING OIL “MOUNTAIN STREAM”:

Autumn in the Rocky Mountains stimulates the senses… sight, smell, and sound. Rich colors… yellows, reds, greens, blues, and violets. Fragrant pines and everything else that nature offers. Water rushing down a mountainside.

As an artist, I feel privileged to chronicle scenes like this, which I first experienced in 2004, when Martha and I made a September trip through Colorado. Here’s my’s original plein air watercolor version of this scene: “Mountain Stream in Fall.”

MARTHA MARKS ADDS:
This is one of only two original paintings on wood panel that we offer on this website. (The other one is “Dog Walk on a Golden Day.”) I’m sure Bernie made more this way, because they’re wonderfully smooth and appealing for that reason, but these two are the only ones we have left.


This original painting is available for purchase, as are large, top-quality, custom-made giclée prints.

  • Medium of the original: oil on a smooth wooden panel, so it has no visible texture as canvas does.
  • Size of the original: 20″ x 16″
  • This piece will need to be framed.
