"Rocks of Papago" ©

In Scottsdale Arizona, Papago Park is the closest location I found to paint that was fairly safe and interesting. I painted this rock formation several times, exploring different ways to describe the stone in paint. Too early for snakes, other then one Jack Rabbit, all I had were birds for company.

"End Of The Day" ©

The end of the day cool of the red rock butte with the distant mountain range lit up in the last of the sunlight was what attracted me to this view, while painting in Arizona.
