Steam rises against the Colorado mountain air as the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge rounds a bend through rugged canyon country, a scene frozen in the golden age of American railroading. Painted in oils on a DaVinci Pro panel, this work captures the raw power and romance of narrow gauge steam with rich, layered brushwork that brings depth to the locomotive's iron form and the wild landscape surrounding it. I've long been drawn to the Durango & Silverton. It is one of the last working narrow gauge steam lines in the country. There's something deeply moving about a machine that powerful threading through terrain that untamed. I wanted to capture that tension between iron and wilderness. This painting is for the collector who feels the pull of American railroad history and wants a piece of it on their wall.
