"Desert Dawn," 5 x 7 acrylic on canvas pan |
When you live in or near the deserts, you know about grit...sand, rock, wind, and people...and landscapes and views. Raw.
Today's little painting, a study for something larger, reflects that grit in the strong palette knife textures. Probably not smooth enough to attract a buyer, but still, part of my desert series.
Navajo Country, with a hogan? Monument Valley? New Mexico, or out of my imagination? The brilliant colors of the skies, the country, the dramatic landforms, where humans are small and ephemeral, and the world is textured, like our lives, real.
