Description
On December 12, 2016, Janet and I were at this very spot at the Grand Canyon. It is near Mather Point along the south rim. It was a beautiful mid morning view of the distant Vishnu Temple and Wotans Throne. Wind blown scattered clouds made for ever changing light on the canyon walls. The Kaibab Trail winds its way down to the burnt sienna hued O Neils Butte 3 miles from the rim trail head. Another 4 miles down the trail is the Colorado River.
It was from this very area 50 years ago that I saw the Grand Canyon for the first time. It is where many that visit the canyon see it for the first time as well. In any major painting of it I endeavor to include the rocky pine tree studded foreground is if you were standing there. I also want to capture the distant horizon, clouds and sky. By doing this I hope to capture the depth and distance of this incredible place. I hope my love and passion for this awesome landscape shows in my attempts to capture it on canvas!

Sometimes I forget just how MARVELoUs your Grand Canyon artwork can look on my PC screen, Jerry. This is just scrumptiously beautiful! You know how I am FASCINATED with rock formations, and your painting says why. Promoting this in Beauty Of Arizona discussion thread, "National Parks, State Parks, and National Monuments of Arizona!" You including the rocky pine tree studded foreground is as though we are standing there. I love how your have captured the distant horizon, clouds and sky,and in doing so you most certainly have captured the depth and distance of this incredible place. Your love and passion for this AWEsoMe landscape really shows up! LF and Facebook

an amazing place along the rim to soak it all in at first glance, Jerry. This too is right around where I caught first glimpse of the Grandest canyon on earth.. the second time was just as exciting as the first! I am very impressed you were able to set a mostly cloudy mood here and still get all the details and characteristics of the canyon. Simply amazing!
