I painted this in the late afternoon today because it was a good time to capture shadows. Up here in the mountains of the Cibola National Forest, it's kind of a pre-Spring season. The snow has all melted, but the greens aren't very green yet.

I was in a "paint out" yesterday with the Plein Air Painters of New Mexico & painted "Water Canyon" 8" x 10" oil on board. Funny thing is, there's hardly any water in the canyon. It was named back when weather currents favored rain there.

I'm back in New Mexico!

I'm finally back in southwestern New Mexico after spending months painting along the Gulf of Mexico in St Petersburg Florida.

This is "Box Canyon" which I painted about a year ago. If you would like to see more of my New Mexico & Southwestern art, please scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on "older posts"
