Spring In New Mexico

Colors of the high desert in spring with the wild flowers blooming, the chamisa and grasses are changing color. "...the skies and land are so enormous, and the detail so precise and exquisite that wherever you are you are isolated in a glowing world between the macro and the micro.” - Ansel Adams.  Landscape of the colorful and seemingly endless mesas and the layers of colors in Northern New Mexico that have drawn artists for well over a century.  The buttes and mesas have a towering presence above the plains with an immense sky above.

Another  series of  watercolors working to achieve a minimalist feel. A fun way to bust loose and explore with watercolors using quick strokes with a Japanese writing brush on rough watercolor paper. 12" x  16" image size, unframed without matting
