"Across the Plateau" pastel painting

3 1/2 x 10 pastel on peach LaCarte
After a lovely breakfast at our B&B, sitting outside in the garden, listening to the cooing of the doves, we went for a drive to see a state park called "Dead Horse Canyon".  More on that later....

We came back to our lovely B&B called the Sunflower Inn, and sat outside in the shady garden and had a picnic lunch.  After that Stan went to play golf and I went for a dip in the pool, and then did this little painting from the photo I took yesterday as we approached the "Windows" area of Arches National Park.  Can you see the little arch in the background?
