A contemporary view of the Delicate Arch in Arches National Park. A myriad of oil colors and cold wax applied with a palette knife brings the arch and the sky alive with vivid reality and draws the eye across the miles to the snow capped mountains beyond. A study in diversity in climate and topography as only seen in the west. The use of cold wax blended with the oils gives the redrocks and other elements a wonderful two dimensional texture. Mixed media on canvas. 45.7 cm x 61 cm. 2010.
