Sequoyah Hills Morning Walk Original Plein Air Oil Painting

Sequoyah Hills Morning Walk is an impressionist oil painting that celebrates the beauty of spontaneous creation on the Sequoyah Hills walking path in Knoxville, Tennessee, during the Plein Air Smokies Quick Draw Competition.

Painted in a single session over a few hours, as thunder boomed, lightning flashed, and a rainstorm rolled in, this original artwork captures the early morning darkness and light of the enchanting view along this walking trail in Knoxville, Tennessee, as rain poured down around Bethany while she painted.

In this alla prima painting, we see the worn path, with locks of light poking through the trees, and a distant person walking through the tree-lined corridor.

Perfect for lovers of walking, residents and visitors to Sequoyah Hills, art collectors, and those who appreciate the enchanting nature of hiking paths and emotional expression, this piece invites viewers to pause, breathe, and feel the beauty and peace that can be found even in the most overlooked places.

Comes framed unless otherwise requested.
