"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?

I want to paint rocks!!!! Arches National Park

We saw so many amazing sights today.  Here is just one picture of a beautiful arch of stone.  For my friends from foreign countries - this is Arches National Park in the State of Utah.  This is an ancient area of sandstone that was sculpted by wind over the eons.

I will be painting - maybe from a photo displayed on my laptop - maybe I can do it tonight in our room after dinner.
