Sunset to Zion
"Sunset To Zion"
Oil on Belgian Linen
12" H X 16" W
$575
A view as one approaches Zion National Park from the West. While none of this view is actually of the Park, I have loved this view in the late afternoon over the years. Last July I stood along the dirt road in 100 degree afternoon sun and did a plein air study, which I used for this studio piece.

Desert Dawn
"Desert Dawn"
Oil on Belgian Linen
12" X 16"

As the day dawns the desert is very, very quiet. The light quickly spreads across the desert. There is a fleeting moment when the colors are rich and vibrant. This is a favorite time on the desert and the air is morning cool.

"Standing Alone"
Oil on Canvas, 8"X10" $275

"Morning Light"
Oil on Linen, 11" X 14" $500
I first painted this as a 'plein air' piece from a trip to Colorado in the early Fall. The light coming through the trees and bouncing off the rocks and the tree trunks intrigued me, and provided a great spot to paint.

A Grand View
