Santa Elena Canyon

Canyon Reflections, 12 x 12

Santa Elena Canyon is breath-taking - a massive wall of rock that has been cut through by the flowing river over millions of years. On this particular morning I loved how the sun lit up the rock (although it came and went) and how the reflections shimmered.

Laurel, this is beautiful. So many subtle variations of that pretty salmony rock color. And, as usual, very peaceful and pleasant to look at!

Laurel,

You absolutely fill me with delight.
What gorgeous work! I feel like I'm in the painting, and looking at it -- rewarded from both perspectives.

Take care,

Barbara
