About the Painting
The last time I visited the Four Corners region of the Colorado Plateau was several years ago. The big, beautiful blue sky was full of white fluffy clouds--the perfect high desert weather. I took photos of Monument Valley from a few miles away, watching the clouds pass shadows over the red rock buttes below. I printed this photo when I returned from my trip, and I have been wanting to paint it ever since. When I paint, I try to recapture what it felt like to actually stand there, my feet sinking into the warm, soft red sand, a breeze ruffling my hair, squinting into the sky, and feeling surrounded by beautiful color 360 degrees around me.
Fresh off the Easel!
