I guess I can't stay away from this canyon. It's about an hour from my home, but worth the drive. I painted this at around 7PM, and it was still hot...eighty five degrees. The sun was beginning to set, and that made the shadows darker which created more contrast.

It was a hot day today....93 degrees in the sun. It was also pretty windy at times. However, the sunlight flooding the canyon was truly dramatic, and the sky was intensely blue. The location I painted in is called Box Canyon in Socorro County New Mexico.

Painting outdoors is both exhilarating and challenging....a kind of adventure.
