 Canyon Junction Rocks and Weeds - 12x12 Plein air Pastel. |
| Last week I spent 6 wonderful days, painting and exploring the beautiful and majestic Zion National Park. The fall colors were just coming in when we arrived on Sunday, but by the end of the week, the colors were reaching their peak with the beautiful yellows and reds. My brother Bob, and wife Karen, have recently moved into their new home in Rockville, which is right outside the park area. Also along with me on the trip was my good friend Lilli, and of course my every present companion, Abbie, my Labradoodle. Abbie loved running in the fields by my brothers home, and looking at the horses in the fields next door. |
"Horse Valley Wash" - 11x14 plein air pastel.
This painting was done just outside the park, in Rockville, near my brothers home.
