Artist's Description
**This was painted for the Tohono Chul Park annual 10 x 10 Fundraiser. "An Invitational Exhibition of small works by the artists who have made the exhibits at Tohono Chul shine throughout the last year." Sold in that show. **
As you look toward the Santa Catalina Mountains from metropolitan Tucson, Arizona, one of the most distinctive landmarks on the Pusch Ridge skyline, resembles a closed hand with the index finger extended to make a #1 sign. This is Finger Rock, a 100 foot high formation that marks the steep canyon that bears its name.

About Jerry Bokowski
I have been in awe of the deserts, mountains, and canyons of the great southwest for over 50 years.

Chance Kafka
Paying a revisit to this small, highly effective painting Jerry. You have perfectly conveyed the misty warm aura of sunset at the end of a great day in the desert. Your creative juices really flowed with this small series!
Jerry Bokowski replied:
Thank you as always Chance for your visits, comments, and support!
Anne Gifford
