Altamont Pass

Digital painting based on a spooky sight I caught outside my car window on my way to the new house when we were still moving a few weeks ago. Looked so perfect that I just had to draw it (and it may also be because I couldn't get good pictures on the road but shhh) Altamont Pass is a mountain pass that's apparently infamous for its frequent road accidents (and a few freak accidents at that), especially at night due to it being pitch black (save for only the headlights of people's cars), yeahhh not a good thing to hear when seeing something like this out the window, thank you Mom for your cursed knowledge lol
