Blue Gorge

After working through a very realist painting in watercolor, I have loosened up with an oil from a study I did previously in mixed media.  I can't remember exactly where this canyon image came from, either travels in Utah or New Mexico but it is probably a composite from memory of a lot of the canyons and mountains we have visited.  The organic flow of the masses is also the way I remember many badlands areas in both states.

Commissioned by a Friend

This painting was commissioned by a friend for his wife's anniversary present.  He sent a photo on his I-phone to me and we went from there.  Ironically it is yet another bird of paradise painting.....
