"Castle Rock, Sedona" 11 x 14 (Click here to bid on eBay)



This is a view of the famous rock formation called Castle Rock in Sedona, Arizona. Also known as Cathedral Rock. I have painted this formation before, but without this much foreground water in view. The reference for this was shot in November so the trees are golden and the water is shallow. Click on the image for a larger view.

"Sedona Quiet" 11x14 (Click here to bid on eBay)



A trip through Sedona in the winter of '06 provided me with a photograph to create this painting. I remember not being too impressed with the colors at the time. Not the shades of grey and brown in the foliage, but the brightness of the sky and lack of clouds. One of those white sky days. Click on the image for a larger view.

"Sedona Valley" 11x14 (Click here to bid on eBay)



I wanted to get up to Sedona this weekend,(2 hour drive), for more reference to paint from, but that was out of the question after getting another illustration project to deal with. I did have enough time to drive out to Apache Junction near Superstition Mountain that was only about 30 minutes. Shot some great sunset scenes where I'm going to concentrate on foreground objects instead of the mountain. At least that's the plan. Click on the image for a larger view.
