In a time when the world feels so divided, Grand Staircase Escalante feels like a place of deep connection. It is vast, quiet, and humbling. As we walk down the sandy trail in bare feet, silence holds a kind of reverence, and I swear the colors vibrate in the clear desert air. Red rock blazes against endless blue, and sagebrush shimmers silver in the sun. At Lower Calf Creek Falls, I stood listening to the water spill through ancient stone, amazed by how beauty can endure even in the harshest places.
Out here, I feel stripped down to pure wonder. I can sense the presence of those who came before, people who read the land for meaning and survival. As a painter, this place feels like home. The color, light, and form feel distilled to their essence, reminding me why I paint in the first place—to hold onto moments like this, when everything feels whole again.
Details: Original oil painting on 24×30” and 1.5” deep. Heavy duty cotton duck, acid-free and archival stretched canvas. Wired and signed on the back. Varnished, edges painted black, and felt pads on back corners for added wall protection. I recommend taking this piece to your local frame shop and getting a floater frame to match your space.
