Zion Day 14

I went through my photos this morning and picked out the ones I thought are painting worthy and made a list. From that list I picked one I wanted to paint next and drew it onto a canvas board.

I cut the board down to a 19x30. This will make a decent size but I really wish it could be bigger. If it turns out nice, I may make a much bigger piece.

I left the canyon and headed down to St George, a town on the way to Vegas. I met Roland Lee at the Mission Gallery and he gave me a tour of the Galleries there in St. George as well as a show at the college and at a museum. It was a great art-filled day.

I was using the opportunity to see some art while on the way to pick up Vivi at the airport in Vegas. Unfortunately her flight was delayed for 2-1/2 hours out of DFW, so I have some time to kill. That's where the Vegas shots come from.

What a contrast to where I just came from, total darkness and solitude in the canyon, to a blitz of neon and humanity. What a great country!

That's all for today.
