“As snow is a winter surprise for some parts of Humboldt County, finding such a breathtaking painting by one of our local painters, Jim McVicker, seemed like a gift of the season. He states: “The title is just ‘Horse Mountain’ size is 30x40. I painted a small painting on location and used it plus a reference photo to do the larger painting in my studio. Most all my landscapes are painted outdoors, but sometimes as in this case, I will use a small study to work up a larger painting in the studio.” Jim’s work has been appreciated previously by Humboldt Historian readers. Jim McVicker’s 2001-2002 painting, “Twilight” graced the Fall 2014 cover of the Historian and Jerry Rohde’s book, ‘Both Sides of the Bluff’. Jim McVicker has lived and painted in Humboldt County since 1977. Visit his website to see more of his work: http://www.jimmcvickerpaints.com/.”
