This is the second painting that I did in the PAAC, Plein Air Artists of Colorado, Marathon paint out. While waiting for the sun to actually rise over Pulpit Rock (in yesterday's post), I turned my easel around and painted Pikes Peak. While painting I kept an eye on the sunrise to get the colors of the sky. Sunrise was scheduled, interesting how nature can be scheduled, for 5:36. But, Pulpit Rock is a bit higher than the horizon, so it didn't really rise over the Rock until around 6:00. This is similar to a painting that I did of Pikes Peak at sunrise a few weeks ago. But, that morning there was a full moon setting.
