Beautiful Sunrise Over Mountain Landscape Art Postcard

Sunrise over purple mountains with bighorn sheep and a pine tree. Inspired by my time traveling in the American southwest. The bighorn sheep are one of the most iconic creatures of the Rocky Mountains. Traveling in herds, they roam through the rough terrain. The rams are famous for their impressive head butting battles during the breeding season. Opposite the sheep is a lone pine tree, gnarled from years of growing against the harsh alpine elements. I wanted to play with the idea of sunrise coming up over a mountain range and warming the peaks. The shades of purple in the mountain range remind me of my favorite crayon as a child, "purple mountain majesty". The warm yellow and orange hues of the sunrise contrast the mountains, bringing light and a new day across the landscape.
