Watercolor from Zion National Park


"November Gold"
7" x 10"
Watercolor

My family and I visited Zion National Park several times this past fall. The weather was pleasant into mid-November and the trails were bordered with the oranges and golds so typical of autumn in this beautiful canyon. I recently finished this little painting of the cottonwood trees at the entrance to the Narrows Trail. Done on Arches hot press 140 lb. paper, it was a joy to paint.
