The most wonderful part about cloudy days is when you get those amazing cloud breaks that shine a spotlight on the landscape, making anything they touch look magical! This painting was inspired by one of those moments.

Under a Southwest Sky III

Under a Southwest Sky III - 6x6 -  Oil on Panel

Sold

Wow. I swear it's impossible to take a bad picture on the way from Page, Arizona, to Zion NP along Highway 89! Which of course makes it easier to paint the area. Until I started painting I never noticed just how much variety of color there is in clouds. As they get closer to the horizon they turn progressively from gold to pinkish; when that was combined with the expansive views of the southwest I couldn't resist painting this scene!
