Ferguson Canyon

48" x 60" acrylic on canvas
This is a large painting of a small canyon next to the Little Cottonwood canyon here on the edge of Salt Lake City. It has a hiking trail right up the middle but the challenge is finding the trail head behind the residential area.

Hobble Creek

12" x 12" acrylic
After delivering paintings to the Springville Art Museum I took a drive just to the east of the village. The terrrain quickly changes as you enter a canyon with a beautiful creek flowing through the underbrush called Hobble Creek.

Backcountry Drama

28" x 80" acrylic
We spent an afternoon about an hour north of here in the Ogden Valley earlier this week. The scenery is majestic with mountians all around and creeks flowing throughout the valley. I find it amazing to have such beauty so close at hand.
