ROAD TO MONUMENT VALLEYThe human imagination is so amazing in how it can visualize or reimagine images and stories within common, everyday items. We saw this massive rock formation on the way to Monument Valley, and from a distance it looked like a castle planted in the desert. With the colors of the atmosphere, and sandstone behind it, it felt like the lone guardian to a magical land. It was a unique challenge in this painting to create the feeling on soft fluffy clouds with such little contrast as well as pushing the background formations without obscuring the detail of each progressive layer's topography.
