Bruce Katlin Creates And The Running Artist

Wednesday, August 3, 2016


From Run-to-Paint session. Oil on board. "Aquilegia Explosion, NM." 36x24. The Stats: Elevation: 12,000', calories burned 4823, miles ran, 10, steps 2120, a ton of sweat, 100 lbs pack back weight, a lot of paint; Joy quotient: 110! Purchased the painting here. Watch the video here.

This was one of the most challenging run-to-paint sessions that I've tackled to date. The pack was extremely heavy and the altitude and pitch of the trail were very steep. Nevertheless, the above painting was created and two days in the wilderness was worth the struggle.

Happy trails! - Bruce
